Foo Fighters to Perform Saturday at RFK

The Foo Fighters will take the stage at RFK Saturday night, for the first time since frontman Dave Grohl took a long step off a short stage at a concert in Sweden and broke his leg.

Is it 100 percent certain that Grohl, a Northern Virginia native, will be playing with the band on that broken leg? It hasn’t been spelled out but the band did say on social media they plan to perform at the concert, taking the stage at 9:05 p.m.

The all-day concert features a stellar lineup: Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, Buddy Guy, Heart, Gary Clarke Jr. and LL Kool J.

Meanwhile, fans can celebrate the band’s 20th anniversary and grab some Foo Fighters gear at a popup shop that opened today (Thursday) at Union Station ahead of Saturday’s performance.

Here’s what you’ll find, according to a message from the band on its Facebook page:
