The Foo Fighters are reopening Madison Square Garden in New York to live concerts with a sold out show this weekend. Everyone who attends must be vaccinated.
Last night they did a warm up show for 600 frenzied fans at the Canyon Club in California, and just like in New York, you had to show photo ID as well as proof of vaccination in order to pick up your non-transferable tickets for the 21+ show.
Dave Grohl missed concerts as much as us, pushing the band through a 2 and a half hour set, saying, “I missed this shit so fucking much. You have no idea.” During “The Pretender,” he broke into a Chuck Berry riff, “Did you miss rock & roll?” he asked the crowd. “I got some rock & roll!”
While they were having a great time inside, Silver Spoons star Ricky Schroeder was leading a crowd of anti vaxxers in a protest outside. Rick seems really pissed off. He was on Facebook Sunday saying, "Dave Grohl is an ignorant punk who needs slapped for supporting Discrimination. Ignorance comes in all shapes & sizes. Kurt Cobain is laughing at you Dave along with Millions of Patriots....Fool." Nice to see Ricky not yelling at people in Costco.
Check out the protest and the opening song, "Times Like These" which is going to give you chills, as well as a cover of Queen's "Somebody To Love." I can't wait to see these guys at Boston Calling next year. Here's the set list from last night...
