On Tuesday night (September 27) an all-star cast of musicians came together to celebrate the life of Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins. It was the second tribute, following an emotional one in London earlier this month, and featured a lot of the same names, as well as many others.
The night kicked off with Dave Grohl's daughter Violet singing Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" and ended with a 12-song set by Foo Fighters. In between was a special set by the surviving members of Nirvana and Soundgarden; Miley Cyrus teamed up with the Foos and Def Leppard; Alanis Morissette, who Hawkins drummed for before the Foos, performed; and so much more. All together, it was six hours of music broken into an epic 53-song setlist. Check out the full setlist, including all special guests, below.
