The band struck a balance between fan-favorite anthems like Everlong and Best of You — guaranteed crowd reaction songs — and deeper cuts such as Hey, Johnny Park! and Exhausted, demonstrating their broad catalog and deep connection with longtime fans.
The performance in León was notable for its lineup adjustment. Longtime guitarist Pat Smear sat out several early-season dates due to a foot injury, humorously described by the band as a “bizarre gardening accident.” In his place, guitarist Jason Falkner — known for his work with Beck and St. Vincent — filled in for the show, keeping the band’s live energy intact without missing a beat.
Frontman Dave Grohl also used the night to spotlight Smear’s presence in spirit, dedicating the performance of My Hero to him, a gesture that underscored the band’s camaraderie and respect for their long-standing member.
Video clips from the concert — including performances of All My Life and Times Like These — were shared widely online, giving fans around the world a first look at the Foo Fighters’ powerful live return. The band’s León set, rich with sing-aloud moments, has built anticipation for their 2026 Take Cover Tour announcement, which includes major North American stadium dates with support from acts like Queens of the Stone Age.
Social media responses highlighted fans’ excitement over the mix of hits and rarities, as well as the band’s apparent energy and stage chemistry despite recent lineup adjustments.
