Yes Singer Leads Foo Fighters On Rush Cover In Anaheim

Foo Fighters‘ Sonic Highways World Tour rolled into the band’s home turf of Southern California over the weekend for a performance at the Honda Center in Anaheim on Saturday night. Drummer Taylor Hawkins brought old old friend Jon Davison, the current lead singer of Yes, for a cover of “Tom Sawyer” by Rush.

Hawkins explained that he’s known Davison since their grade school days and were in early bands together. The drummer mentioned the group had attempted to learn a Yes song but “we didn’t have enough time” to which Dave Grohl added “they’re too fucking hard,” so they instead decided to cover “Tom Sawyer.”
