\t\t\t\t\tFoo Fighters Hopping Off Headlining Tour to Fill In For Pretty Reckless at AC\/DC\u2019s St. Louis Gig: \u2018This Is Literally a Dream Come\u00a0True\u2019\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n\t\u201cHey everybody, we got something to tell you. You better listen up close now. A very good friend of ours asked us today if he could come up and join us on the stage for \u2018Highway for Hell.\u2019 And we said, \u2018Yes Dave, you can.\u2019 David Grohl!\u201d AC\/DC\u2019s Brian Johnson told the roaring audience as he hugged the Foo Fighters frontman.<\/p>\n

\n\tAC\/DC\u2019s show at MetLife was originally scheduled for Sept. 25, but a nor\u2019easter storm forced the band to cancel the gig. Days later, the concert was rescheduled for Oct. 2, with Foo Fighters announced as the surprise opening act.<\/p>\n

\n\tDuring the Foos\u2019 opening set Friday, Grohl told the New Jersey crowd about the important role AC\/DC has played in his life and why he was thrilled to open for the band for a second time.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWhen I was 11 years old and I went to a midnight movie, and I saw the Let There Be Rock<\/em> movie in the f\u2014king movie theater, at 11 years old, I didn\u2019t know that rock n\u2019 roll could be like that. I didn\u2019t know that rock n\u2019 roll was sweat and blood and f\u2014king tears and every ounce of energy you had,\u201d Grohl told the crowd.<\/p>\n

\n\tHe continued, \u201cI saw that movie, I was 11 years old, I said, \u2018I want to do that for the rest of my f\u2014king life.\u2019 So here we are\u2026 I\u2019m going to live my childhood dream again, tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tNearly a month earlier, Grohl and company opened for AC\/DC in St. Louis on Sept. 8, stepping in for the tour\u2019s scheduled opener, The Pretty Reckless, due to scheduling conflicts involving singer Taylor Momsen.<\/p>\n

\n\tFriday\u2019s MetLife show marked the final date of AC\/DC\u2019s Power Up Tour in support of the band\u2019s 2020 album, Power Up<\/em>, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.<\/p>\n

\n\tAC\/DC has not announced additional dates beyond the Power Up Tour. At the end of their show, Johnson told the audience, \u201cGood night, hope we\u2019ll see you again.\u201d<\/p>\n
