Foo Fighters

In August 2002, when Foo Fighters delivered a thrilling live performance at Gebäude 9 in Cologne, they were riding high on the success of their album "One by One," released just months earlier. This album, which hit shelves in late 2002, marked a significant moment for the band; it was their first album following the loss of their longtime friend and Nirvana bandmate, Kurt Cobain. The emotional weight of that period was palpable in their music, infusing tracks like "All My Life" and "Breakout" with a powerful energy. Interestingly, this Cologne show fell during the band's extensive touring in support of the album, showcasing their evolution into formidable live performers. The intimate venue allowed fans to experience their hard-hitting sound up close, a testament to their growing popularity and the raw emotion that characterized their music during this transformative phase in their career.
