Foo Fighters took a brief pause from their ongoing “Take Cover Tour” to join the LA Philharmonic at the Hollywood Bowl for a big blowout concert celebrating departing music director Gustavo Dudamel. Over the course of their 15-song set, Foo Fighters were joined by a full orchestra and choir under Dudamel’s direction as they delivered a career-spanning performance featuring favorites like “All My Life,” “Learn to Fly,” and “Best of You.” The band also dusted off several live rarities, including “I Should Have Known” from Wasting Light for the first time since 2012, “Razor” from In Your Honor for the first time since 2006, and “Home” from Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace for just the ninth time ever.
