"Colbert introduced the two songs as follows: “Performing a medley of the first song they played on this stage on The Late Show 31 years ago, 'This Is a Call,' and the last one on Letterman in 2015, 'Everlong,' ladies and gentleman, Foo Fighters!”"
"Dave Grohl and company then delivered an impassioned performance, as the frontman went in full scream mode during a shortened version of “This Is a Call,” before the band launched into the anthemic “Everlong.”"
"Foo Fighters first played “This Is a Call” on Letterman in August 14th, 1995, marking the band's first-ever national TV performance. Letterman immediately became a huge fan of the band, and invited them back multiple times until they ultimately performed “Everlong” on the legendary host's final show on May 20th, 2015."
"Fans can catch Foo Fighters this summer on a North American stadium tour with support from Queens of the Stone Age. The outing runs from early August through late September, with tickets available here. The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, meanwhile, will air its last-ever episode next Thursday, May 21st."
Foo Fighters performed two new songs on May 4 on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, while also playing additional classics for the studio audience. Colbert shared a web-only exclusive featuring a medley of “This Is a Call” and “Everlong,” with a nod to David Letterman. The performance included a shortened “This Is a Call” with intense vocals, followed by the anthemic “Everlong.” “This Is a Call” was first performed on Letterman on August 14, 1995, marking the band’s first national TV appearance. Letterman invited the band back multiple times, culminating in “Everlong” on his final show on May 20, 2015. Foo Fighters also announced a North American stadium tour with Queens of the Stone Age.
