Foo Fighters

On September 27, 2022, Foo Fighters performed “The Pretender” during the heartfelt Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concert at the Kia Forum in Inglewood. This event came just over a month after the release of their tenth studio album, *But Here We Are*, which dropped in June 2023 and was a poignant reflection on loss and healing following Hawkins’ untimely passing earlier that year. The concert not only celebrated Hawkins' legacy but also showcased the tight-knit bond within the rock community, with various artists joining Foo Fighters for memorable performances. Interestingly, Jon Theodore, known for his work with Queens of the Stone Age, stepped in on drums, giving a fresh twist to the beloved track. This evening was more than just a concert—it was an emotional release, a tribute to a beloved friend, and a celebration of the enduring spirit of rock. It's moments like these that remind us why we hold music so dear, isn’t it?
