Me meto un tiro,
¡Pum!
El eco suena,
¡Pum!
O quizás es el corazón,
¡Pum!
Que todavía sueña.

La pasada noche del 5 de mayo, Foo Fighters dieron un concierto sorpresa en la fiesta de cumpleaños de Big Tony, miembro de la legendaria banda de funk de Washington, Trouble Funk.

La presencia de Grohl si estaba prevista en una actuación junto a Pete Stahl (Scream) y Darryl Jenifer y Dr. Know de Bad Brains bajo el nombre de The Don’t Need It’s pero el concierto de los Foo’s si fue inesperada. Y no se quedó en una mera anécdota: el concierto se extendió más de dos horas, con un setlist de 17 temas.

  1. Times Like These
  2. White Limo
  3. Arlandria
  4. Rope
  5. Pretender
  6. Arlandria
  7. My Hero
  8. Generator
  9. Walk
  10. These Days
  11. Cold Day in the Sun
  12. Big Me
  13. Monkey Wrench
  14. Best of You
  15. This is a Call
  16. All My Life
  17. Aurora (bis)
  18. Dear Rosemary (bis)
  19. Skin and Bones (bis)
  20. Everlong (bis)

Hablando de Big Tony y Trouble Funk, Grohl cuenta:

De pequeño, creciendo a las afueras de Washington D.C., Trouble Funk fueron leyendas como lo son hoy. Yo teloneé a Trouble Funk cuando tenía dieciséis o diecisiete y cada vez que he visto tocar a la banda me ha inspirado a volver a casa a descubrir música y tocarla y tocar lo mejor que pueda.

IN ENGLISH

If there’s one thing we’ve learned about Foo Fighters over the years, it’s that they’re not shy about playing surprise shows. So it should have come as no surprise that when Dave Grohl was booked to take part in a celebration honoring Washington, D.C. legend Big Tony, his band wasn’t too far behind.

Grohl was initially expected to take part in an all-star jam with his pre-Nirvana and former Foo Fighters bandmate Pete Stahl along with Bad Brains‘ Darryl Jenifer and Dr. Know, and that actually did happen as the group played under the moniker The Don’t Need It’s.

But the Foo Fighters performance came as a surprise to those packed into the 9:30 Club for the show. According to Consequence of Sound, the group played a late night, two-hour set putting a capper on an evening that saluted Big Tony and his longtime band Trouble Funk.

Grohl has stated in a video prior to the event, “As a local kid growing up outside of Washington D.C. Trouble Funk were legends just as they are today. I opened up for Trouble Funk when I was maybe 16- or 17-years-old and every time I have seen the band play it has inspired me to go home and discover music and play music and play as well as I can.”

As for Foo Fighters’ set, the band didn’t really let anything out of the bag. The group has been laying down songs for a new record, but stuck to the standards during their set. The surprise show set list can be seen below.
