Foo Fighters Dress Up as Kiss and Perform Black Sabbath's "War Pigs" —Video
As those of you with calendars know, Friday was Halloween.
To celebrate the occasion, Foo Fighters — during their Friday-night show at the Ryman in Nashville — dressed up as Kiss, invited Zac Brown on stage and performed Black Sabbath's "War Pigs."
They've done this before, mind you, but the Kiss makeup was a nice Halloween twist.
They did a damn fine job, we might add! You can check out a fan-filmed clip of the performance below; tell us if you agree!
Their 26-song set also included covers of David Bowie and Queen's "Under Pressure" and Cheap Trick's "Stiff Competition" (all while completely decked out in Kiss makeup).
