Foo Fighters have started their current leg of ‘Sonic Highways’ world tour in Christchurch, New Zealand overnight with that set that included a classic rock cluster.

New Zealand fans were treated to Foo Fighters versions of songs by Kiss, The Faces, Queen + David Bowie as well as AC/DC’s anthem ‘Let There Be Rock’.

The Foo Fighters set included ‘Stay With Me’ (Faces), ‘Under Pressure’ (Bowie and Queen) and ‘Detroit Rock City’ (Kiss).

Foo Fighters Honor Taylor Hawkins and Introduce Josh Freese To Melbourne #REVIEW

Dave Grohl said he had lost count of the number of times Foo Fighters have toured Australia “10, 20, 100”. The answer is actually 13. Foo Fighters first toured Australia on the Summersault Festival in 1995. They were back in 1998, 1999, 2000, 2002, 2003, 2005, 2008, 2011, 2015, 2018 and for that one-off show in Geelong in 2022. The early tours were mainly club shows. The biggest they got in those first 10 years (outside festivals) was a Festival Hall show in Melbourne. The first arena show was in 2005 and for the past 10 years it has been stadiums.
