[NME](https://www.nme.com/news/music/foo-fighters-collaborate-liam-gallagher-2244805) that the Foo Fighters were interested in working with him. [Freddie Mercury](https://ultimateclassicrock.com/tags/freddie-mercury/), they're like, 'Oh, my God, he's so outrageous' – a lot of people just skip past the actual thing of what it is that made them great. I think [Dave Grohl](https://ultimateclassicrock.com/tags/dave-grohl/)'s very talented, and so is the band." "This is for you, brother," Gallagher said. I watched that Oasis documentary [ [Supersonic](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5213534/)] the other day, and there's this part where he just sings ' [Champagne Supernova](https://youtu.be/NUtAjUxTuTI)' in one take in its entirety, and you just go, 'Oh, fuck,' you know, the reason we all liked him in the first place is because he's a fucking good singer. “Every time I see him, I get a big hug. "That guy is such a fucking good rock good singer," he said. We’re going, 'Oh, my God, there they are, the real deal.' They look amazing and they’re beating the crap out of each other, and I can't even understand a word they are saying." Prior to the performance, Gallagher spoke glowingly of the departed drummer. “Have a good evening,” he said before hugging the band and leaving the stage, with the scene most definitely set for a powerful, emotional night. "I remember their bus would pull up, outside of Ohio or New Jersey or something like that, and watching those two guys smacking each other, not even out of the bus. With a simple namecheck Gallagher came onstage, by which time the YouTube live stream had already taken over $10,000 in contributions to the MusiCares Trust.

The Foo Fighters have been joined by Liam Gallagher in a special tribute to the band's late drummer.

"I know you can hear this, I know you can feel this. His energy and positivity and passion for life were on display every time Foo Fighters took to the stage. "Taylor I know you're watching," said Ulrich from the stage. Sir Paul was a surprise addition to the line-up - giving a full-throttle rendition of The Beatles classic Helter Skelter, and duetting with Chrissie Hynde on Oh! "He knew more about music than anyone I'd ever met in my life." It was a family affair through and through.
