Known for his energy and rock and roll mentality, Dave Grohl decided to push through his leg break to continue touring while sitting atop a Game of Thrones-like seat, fully equipped with stringed lights, guitar necks and a Foo Fighters logo. Taking it a step further, the front man has now integrated his cast into the performance.
Guitar met cast during the group's second show back in circuit after being forced to cancel a string of European tour dates immediately following Grohl's fall off stage in Sweden, notes NME. They lost out on their Glastonbury headlining slot in which Florence and the Machine took over while endlessly praising the Foo Fighters and covering "Times Like These."
July 4 marked the beginning of their North American tour and in true rock and roll fashion, Grohl decided that he couldn't disappoint his fans. Taking on his first show upon a throne with an elevated leg, Grohl rocked out for the band's 20th anniversary without any intention of stopping.
Their second show in Camden, New Jersey, brought more than just awe-inspiring drive by each band member--this time, Grohl decided to use his injury to his advantage, playing his guitar face down on his cast during "Outside" while sitting on the throne he imagined up after surgery while "high as a f-cking kite," reports Loudwire.
"That was the first time I've ever done the f-king cast solo. Is that okay?" Grohl asked. "Do you like that cast solo? I haven't done that yet. What do you think Camden, should I keep that cast solo? (pause) Looks like I'm doing it in Toronto."
If you snagged tickets to any of the North American tour dates, you may be lucky enough to see Grohl tickle his guitar with his toes. The tour will make its way throughout the U.S. and Canada until embarking on a European tour on Oct. 18.
