IT WAS warm and muggy in Brisbane last night, but a packed Suncorp Stadium was by far the hottest place in town thanks to one of the world’s biggest rock bands.

Legendary rockers Foo Fighters showed why they’re still one of the best in the business during the Brisbane leg of their worldwide Concrete and Gold Tour.

Led by frontman Dave Grohl, the boys treated the sellout crowd to both new songs from their recent studio album and classics such as Learn to Fly and The Pretender.

Grohl had the crowd rocking and cheering all night, despite the heat.

“It’s getting hot in here tonight,” he said. “It’s only getting hotter.

“It’s going to be a good night.”

And it took just two songs for Grohl to profess his love for the Brisbane crowd, screaming, “I f---ing love you already.”

One lucky fan “Joey” was pulled on stage by Grohl to play Foo Fighters classic Monkey Wrench.

The apparent local, who looked strinkingly like Grohl himself, wowed the 40,000-strong crowd with his expert guitar skills.

Foo Fighters, who have enjoyed a love affair with Australian rock audiences, with marathon shows lasting three hours, last graced our stadiums on their Sonic Highways Tour of early 2015.

This latest tour comes on the back of the band’s ninth studio album, Concrete and Gold, released last September.

The band will be jetting off to Sydney to play at ANZ Stadium tomorrow night.
