At the start of the month, the Foo Fighters pulled together a who's who of rockstars for a musical marathon that will go down in history as one of the greatest lineups to ever grace Wembly's stage. The lucky attendees of Wembley Stadium were treated to the rock gig of the decade, with energetic performances from the likes of Queen and Brian Johnson, a reunited Them Crooked Vultures, and a masterclass of technique from Rush - not to mention a surprise appearance from Paul McCartney.
Now, you'd think one concert of that magnitude would be enough, but today, Dave Grohl and co. are taking to the stage again to honour their late drummer and friend, Taylor Hawkins, with yet another mega-show. Taking place at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California, this star-studded tribute promises to be just as thrilling as its British counterpart, with many big names added to the bill in the last few days. US fans can expect exhilarating performances from the likes of Tool's Danny Carey, Soundgarden's Kim Thayil and Matt Cameron, and Motley Crue's Tommy Lee, among many others.
How to stream the Taylor Hawkins tribute concert
While the London concert was available to stream live on MTV's YouTube channel worldwide, unfortunately, that stream isn't available for the LA show.
There is also no official word about whether the show will be available on-demand via Paramount+, like the London concert. We are really hoping that they release footage of the show in some capacity, as if it's anything like the first tribute, it will be a night to remember!
Now, while you may not be able to watch the LA concert, the London performance is still available in its entirety via Paramount+. Paramount's streaming service is available for $4.99/£6.99 a month and contains a wealth of TV shows and films, as well as the Foo Fighters' love letter to their fallen bandmate.
It should also be said that Paramount+ offers a generous free 7-day trial, so you can sign up and try it out before you part with your hard-earned cash.
How to watch outside of your permitted broadcast area
So you want to join the celebration of this larger-than-life drummer, but unfortunately, Paramount+ is not available in your country? Well don't worry, all you need is a VPN.
These Virtual Private Networks are used to change the location of your IP address, therefore tricking the streaming service into thinking you are, in fact, viewing from the USA - or any other country for that matter. Express VPN is our service of choice and is currently available on a 30-day trial.
