Foo Fighters performed a covers-filled encore during their headline set at Firefly festival last night. Watch some of them below.
The festival, which took place in Delaware, was the band's only scheduled date of the entire summer.
"I love Rock and Roll just as much as the next guy," Grohl told the crowd. "Maybe even fucking more than the next guy. I love being in the Foo Fighters. But tonight, for the next four or five songs, we're a fucking bar band called The Holy Shits that plays fucking classic rock songs."
The band then proceeded to perform covers of Queen's 'Under Pressure' and Alice Cooper's 'School's Out', which you can watch below, as well as versions of 'Miss You' by The Rolling Stones and Van Halen's 'Ain't Talkin' Bout Love.'

Disappointlingly for some though, despite the fact they are currently working on a new album, the band didn't play any new songs in their 21 song set. It did include some of their greatest hits, including 'Times Like These', 'My Hero' and 'Monkey Wrench'.
According to Alternative Nation, guitarist Chris Shiflett performed the whole set sitting down, as he recovers from a broken ankle. "When you get old," Grohl told the crowd, "hair grows in weird places and your bones just break."

'Times Like These'
