Foo Fighters

In June 2015, when the Foo Fighters rocked the stage at the iconic Zeppelinfeld in Nuremberg, they were riding high on the success of their album *Sonic Highways*, released just the previous year. This album, celebrated for its unique concept of blending music with the cultural identities of eight American cities, showcased not just their evolution, but a deeper narrative connection between music and place. The live performance at Rock am Ring was a testament to the band's electric energy and emotional intensity; it featured crowd favorites like "Everlong" and "The Pretender" that resonate with fans worldwide. Interestingly, this concert came right before the band faced some significant challenges, as they would soon announce a hiatus in 2016 following frontman Dave Grohl's leg injury during a show in Sweden. This set at Rock am Ring serves as a vibrant snapshot of a pivotal time in their journey—capturing a band in full-throttle, just before a moment of reckoning.
