I used to say that Pat was the happiest man in rock but now Josh isn't far behind!

[@Novotny72]

love the Bonham reference

[@maximwinner5326]

rock'n'roll

[@TigerKing77]

Not really sure what drives Dave grohl must have been born with a lion's heart don't think I've seen any other musician with his passion and love for music I believe he certainly will go down in history as one of the greatest artist of our lifetime.

[@douglasc9182]

The smile on Josh's face while he was playing the ending flourish is what it's all about. 🤘

[@Imaikalani70]

World class drummer

[@casanovafrankenstein8538]

Taking jobs from all us other drummers, I hate Josh freese

[@Spockthinks]

Josh is the best choice!! So good

[@davisjohnson7691]

Josh sounds GOOD. Sheesh. I’ve never seen someone play the Foos so effortlessly. If it weren’t for the stage lights, he wouldn’t sweat at all

[@Boognish_]

All them years with the Vandals. 😅

[@Finite8614]

1:14 josh plays one handed to tighten his hi hat

[@mjm5081]

Noticed that too...Like a true Pro he kept the beat going!

[@Kurko_Games]

It's also amazing how quickly Dave realizes that something is happening on percussion, and he quickly turns around to see what happened. Two masters of music!

[@jd0879]

@@Kurko_GamesIt’s not hard, it’s pretty noticeable that a note was being dropped

[@lauravillar6017]

So much fun... Josh is brilliant❤

[@tonydelbert1358]

Thanks for sharing all these man, seeing them in a small venue had to be fucking rad.

[@annettespizuoco1474]

Awwwww..........Love love love it! WOW sounds amazing!!!!!

[@MHH76]

God this makes me feel so happy!

[@basketburger]

Foos on top form 🔥🔥

[@jazzmuscolini5121]

So Badass!!!

[@rektaboi6391]

Nate's face everytime Josh plays his own drum fills on Foo's songs... It kills me ahahah

[@RABALAK]

a bass player knows what a bass player knows ;) those fills and double kicks are insane and IMO make the Foo sound better

[@davisjohnson7691]

@@RABALAK best drummer alive right now. The stuff he plays w/Danny Elfman is infinitely harder then any rock music. Incredible musician

[@fugginrambo]

Best drummer alive? Hahaha no man. He's rushing terribly for one thing

[@davisjohnson7691]

@@fugginrambo Name 1 better. Dave Lombardo has no versatility. Neil Peart is dead. Travis Barker uses WAY too much snare. Larnell Louis only plays jazz and gospel. Dennis Chambers only plays funk. Josh Freese plays everything. Equally well. Resume speaks for itself. His work speaks for itself. He’s the best alive. Taylor Hawkins can’t sniff his gooch musically. Taylor wasn’t even the best drummer in his own band.

Outstanding - thank you for posting!

Damn. Freese is a machine on the drums.

Taking jobs from all us other drummers, you can't be in every band at once, Josh you prick

🙏❤🌹Taylor🌹❤🙏 GO GET'EM JOSH!!!

[@MattTee1975]

Damnit, I wish I'd known about this!

[@settledownjs]

Not much u could have done if u did know. U had to win the lottery for a ticket. Only 450 tickets, over 500,000 requests put in. I requested 1 ticket, got 1 ticket. For 44 dollars too, yeahhh. Guy out front of the opener had 2k ready to give to someone, but the tickets were not transferable. And this is the only concert where i was on a list. Wooo

[@MattTee1975]

@@settledownjs Awesome, man. I saw this come up and I was like, wait...they were here??

[@kellyb0279]

Rock N Roll tribute

[@damianchallis9214]

I like the fact that josh is josh without butchering the memory of taylor

[@Boognish_]

He's so tasteful

[@Coda-tq5lp]

I feel they're at their 30s.

[@drewcutrer5767]

Josh Freese plays effortlessly. It's not even remotely challenging for him.

[@davisjohnson7691]

Makes me excited to hear what Josh will come up with on the next album (if Grohl gives him the freedom to write his own parts). Taylor was a great drummer, and brought a lot of heart to the band. But come on… this is a real professional. From the most challenging big band music, to the simplest punk rock headbanger.. Josh is a human metronome. Young drummers should have their pen and pad out every time Josh is behind the kit

[@dapdrums]

Pat and Josh haven't mastered the art of the fist-bump. Plenty of tour left to practice.

[@Boognish_]

Because fist bumping is lame sauce.

[@williamboyle8918]

Josh has slowed the Ii s song down. Yeah !! Song needs to breathe a lil.

[@TheMolacho1]

DEVO's looking for a new drummer.😢

[@bonhamclackey574]

Devo's retiring this year. Hopefully Mark and Jerry will guest with the Foos in the future like Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones did and play Uncontrollable Urge or Gates of Steel with them.

[@Boognish_]

​@@bonhamclackey574it was a joke... Josh plays with Devo. Or did.

[@mainlander3920]

Wait, Dave Grohl has a perm? Or did he straighten his hair all these years? 😅

[@bethmacisaac1300]

His hair is naturally curly/wavy and usually looks it, it gets curlier the more humid it is. I know because it acts a lot like my own lol Might have been greasier in the early 90s tho

[@MidwestCynic]

I personally don’t think what he’s doing fits the song at all, it sounds more like a jam band

[@Boognish_]

You're a jam band.

[@MidwestCynic]

@@Boognish_ I’m literally grape jelly.

[@Boognish_]

@@MidwestCynic I'll be the peanut butter. Smear me baby.

[@joefilipelli3867]

Freese is a great drummer but not for the foo fighters

[@FacFerSch]

Yeah, maybe u know better than Dave Grohl what is best for the FF

[@chrisfaller3995]

Who would you rather they have?

Josh is a great drummer who can fit as many bands as he wants to. The Vandals, APC, NIN, The Offspring, Foo Fighters and an endless list of acts!

[@drivingwhilegrey1254]

Agree…and don’t Think he’s gonna stay

[@jd0879]

I agree, I don’t like his interpretation. I really wish he played it closer to the record or what Taylor did live. The most noticeable one is Rope. That’s really, really bad
