Yorkshire rockers The Cribs supported the Foo Fighters at their Manchester Etihad Stadium show earlier this week, and Dave Grohl trolled the punk rock trio over who ‘ripped off Freddie Mercury best.’ You can watch the footage below…
Halfway through Foo Fighters’ set, the band covered Queen‘s ‘Under Pressure’ with drummer Taylor Hawkins leading the crowd in a call and response warm-up. The Foo’s, as well as The Cribs, have paid a live tribute to the song before.
