Foo Fighters' lead singer Dave Grohl led the band to a sold-out concert at Irving Plaza in New York on April 30. The band, comprised of Grohl, Nate Mendel, Pat Smear, Chris Shiflett, Rami Jaffee and Ilan Rubin, performed a hit-heavy performance. The concert was part of a weekend pop-up shows that were just announced on April 29. Tickets were purchased in person at the venue box office. The Foo Fighters are currently promoting their 12th studio album, "Your Favorite Toy." Seven of the 10 new songs were played, including "Window" and "Spit Shine," which the band dropped a music video for earlier in the day. They also showcased rarely played songs from their discography, "Exhausted" from their 1995 self-titled debut album and "A320" from the 1998 "Godzilla" film soundtrack.
