Breaking your leg on stage and then finishing the show is cool. Playing guitar on a throne is cooler. Singing Fleetwood Mac songs onstage with Stevie Nicks is coolest.
The legendary singer and her flowing black shawl joined the Foo Fighters onstage for a couple of songs for their first of two nights playing Inglewood, California. Haim, the sister coven Nicks cast a spell to create, also joined in.
“Let me tell you, I’m a valley girl. I’m a fucking valley girl. That’s me,” said Grohl, introducing Haim. “I married a valley girl and she turned me into a valley girl. It’s totally tubular.”
He went on to say that he hopes his three daughters turn out to be as cool as the band, and they returned the praise by getting down on their knees and bowing down to the rockstar on his throne. A babysitting arrangement was made.
Then Foo Fighters and Haim started playing “Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around” and Nicks joined them on stage for a duet of her song, with Grohl taking over Tom Petty’s vocals from the original track.
The brand new supergroup then performed an eight-minute-version of Fleetwood Mac’s “Gold Dust Woman.”
The scarves Haim wore were gifts from Nicks herself, so definitely woven with magical properties that have yet to reveal themselves.
