Foo Fighters - Wattershed Live Performance at Hallam Arena Sheffield

Location: Sheffield Date: November 30, 2006

In 2006, the Foo Fighters were riding high on the success of their album "In Your Honor," which had been released in June of that year. This double album showcased their range, balancing hard-hitting tracks with more intimate acoustic songs—a bold move that resonated deeply with fans. The live recording of "Wattershed" at Hallam Arena in Sheffield on November 30, 2006, captures the band during a pivotal moment in their career. The energy in venues like this was electric as the band was known for their engaging performances, and it was during this tour they truly honed their live sound. Interestingly, "In Your Honor" featured collaborations with various artists, illustrating their willingness to experiment. It was also around this time that Dave Grohl began playing with the notion of shedding the band's post-grunge roots, pushing towards more melodic and diverse expressions. So, this live performance encapsulates a vibrant chapter in their evolving journey.
