Foo Fighters Joined By Nandi Bushell In Los Angeles
Foo Fighters brought a special guest on stage with them at the Forum in Los Angeles on Thursday night. The band welcomed 11-year-old music prodigy Nandi Bushell on stage to take over on the drums for their 1997 hit “Everlong.”
As you may recall, Nandi rose to fame online for rocking pretty much every rock instrument for covers of the Foos, Slipknot, and more. She’s caught the attention of the rockers themselves, too, beating Dave Grohl in a virtual drum battle.
"This person inspired me last year so much," Grohl told the crowd at the Forum before welcoming Nandi on stage. “[She’s] the most badass drummer in the world." Check out the footage of the performance below.
