Foo Fighters weren’t on Lollapalooza’s lineup, but their presence was definitely felt in Chicago on Friday night as the band hit the stage at the Metro for an intimate, last-minute aftershow. A 1,100-capacity crowd witnessed the band tear through a career-spanning 32-song set that clocked in at three-and-a-half hours (!).
In addition to previewing tracks from their new album, Concrete and Gold, the band played a barrage of cover songs. Of particular note was a rendition of Jane’s Addiction’s “Mountain Song” which saw a surprise appearance from Lollapalooza founder Perry Farrell.
Watch fan-shot footage and see the full setlist below. Concrete and Gold is out September 15th and the band will be embarking on an expansive tour in support.
