Foo Fighters

Foo Fighters
 Download brought their greatest hits to Leeds Festival tonight (August 24) as they headlined the Main Stage.

The band, who last topped the bill at the festival in 2005, played a mammoth two-and-a-half-hour set in front of a huge crowd, which saw Queen drummer Roger Taylor’s son Rufus make a surprise appearance onstage for a cover of Queen classic ‘Tie Your Mother Down’. Scroll down below to watch footage.

Arriving onstage, frontman Dave Grohl shouted to the crowd: "Are you ready? Are you ready? We’re going to have some fun tonight. It’s going to be a long fucking night." The band then kicked off with ‘White Limo’ before racing through ‘Rope’, ‘The Pretender’ and ‘My Hero’. NME

Introducing, ‘Cold Day In The Sun’ Grohl said: “Ladies and gentlemen I've fucking seen you, I've met you before. Some of you I've never met. How many haven't ever seen a Foo Fighters show?” He was then greeted with huge cheers before adding: “What the fuck? Not one show? Actually that's OK because we've got pretty good over the years and you’ve picked a great night.”
