Dave Grohl says AC/DC performance at MetLife Stadium left him emotional

Dave Grohl has admitted that performing on stage with AC/DC reduced him to an emotional wreck. Foo Fighters played two dates with AC/DC last month, and support act The Pretty Reckless had to drop out.

Grohl spoke about the performance he was referring to, which took place at the second concert with AC/DC at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. He made these remarks in an interview with New Zealand radio station The Rock.

Grohl said the band played Highway to Hell that night. He also said he was in tears after leaving the stage.

Grohl said that watching the 1980 documentary Let There Be Rock when he was 11 years old was one of his musical experiences. Foo Fighters begin a stadium tour in Australia this week and will return to New Zealand in January for two dates.
