Foo Fighters cover "Tom Sawyer" by Rush w/ vox by audience member Brian-Aug 12/15 - Edmonton, AB

August 12th, 2015. Rexall Place - Edmonton, AB. Shot with an iPhone 6 and a (somewhat) steady set of arms.

Looks like he's using Dave Grohl's monitors and microphone. The drums are probably loud as is Dave screaming at you, but the other instruments are probably pretty low in the monitors. The front row is more likely to go deaf!

I was thinking, “oh yeah, I could jump onstage and do that”...no f-n way! You rocked it-Great job dude!!

[@deanlindholm8663]

ABsolutely love the look on Daves face when someone actually knows the lyrics

[@mr7wi]

I love Brian - but who in their right mind covers Rush,...in EDMONTON?!!? The Foos do - because Dave brings out the win in all of us

[@ljd1031]

Dave underestimated the Canadian fans......No one knows all the words to Tom Sawyer lol

[@mr7wi]

Lesley Davies Sorry bud, I can only give you a single +1!!

Dave is a fucking tool.

[@larrrywells7932]

That is one of the coolest things that I have EVER seen. This is every concert-goer's favorite dream. Very cool, and very fun to watch. Amazing!

[@pinup60]

totally!! I wanted to do that so many times!! I dont think I'd have the cool to go up there and perform.. I'd be shaking all over lol

[@xcitement5000]

[@sandrameads1124]

Brian's got brass balls for attempting this. Give the man an award.

How cool. What an awesome opportunity!! Great job, Brian!

[@paulsgotgas7307]

Brian lived every fan's dream... while the band enjoyed every minute of it. Thank goodness that was raw rock and roll, and not autotuned.

[@frankfrohmann1504]

One of the greatest moments in the history of music.

[@SS-gn1wj]

Foo is awesome for doing stuff like this. Much respect

[@loren5956]

That was AWESOME! I'm going to be smiling the rest of the day after seeing that. Dave took a huge risk and Brian rocked it!

[@pmasterfunk]

[@williamlauzon8489]

'Brian from Edmonton, Alberta' that's Canadian AF.

The fact that he probably can’t hear himself too great (no in ear monitors) speaks volumes! Excellent job considering dude! And Dave Grohl is such a great guy!

[@jimbodavis1944]

Very true, Brandon. Most don't realize how difficult those conditions are performance-wise - let alone the damn nerves! Nerves change EVERYTHING...

[@Toasterloaf]

You don't need American Idol just invite random dudes up on stage

I Know Right ? LOLOLOLOLOL!

[@pinup60]

LOL

[@versatilians]

That guy, Brian....his imperfections is what makes this.....PERFECT! :D Hell yeah....I love to see musicians and fans having so much fun and embracing different styles. Music being FUN is the reason we all became musicians in the first place!! Hats off to Brian, Dave Grohl, and the fuckin' FOO FIGHTERS!! :)

[@andrew-im8fj]

I love how the FF turn music into something that everyone shares. Not a fan of the swearing, but you got to love Dave.

[@BoxTunnel]

Brian is a LEGEND!

[@cirenosnor5768]

Safe to say he’ll remember that moment for the rest if his life ❤️
