A Taylor Hawkins cover band got the full Dave Grohl treatment earlier this week in Simi Valley,Marc Leclerc California.

The group Chevy Metal honors Hawkins, the late Foo Fighters drummer who was found dead in March of last year at 50 years old.

Grohl joined the group for many a cover, Pitchfork notes, including Van Halen’s "Everybody Wants Some!!," the Kinks’ "You Really Got Me" and AC/DC’s "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap." The outlet also mentioned Taylor Hawkins’ son, Shane, played the drums at the show.

In May, the Foo Fighters thundered and sweated through a 22-song set list for two and a half hours in Washington, D.C., most of them classics (“My Hero,” “Learn to Fly,” “Big Me”) and a few new heartbreakers from “But Here We Are,” the band’s first album since Hawkins’ March 2022 death, out earlier this year. The group said late last year it would still tour after Hawkins' death.

The Foo Fighters held tribute concerts in celebration of Hawkins about a year ago. At the Los Angeles concert, Miley Cyrus joined Def Leppard; Pink performed with Queen and Heart's Nancy Wilson; Mötley Crüe’s Nikki Sixx sang as a shirtless Tommy Lee ferociously beat the drums. Joan Jett; Kesha; Alanis Morissette; Travis Barker; Joe Walsh and the reunited James Gang; Soundgarden, The Police's Stewart Copeland; and Metallica's Lars Ulrich all took to the stage to pay musical respects to Hawkins.

Grohl has had plenty of fun rocking out with others, too, like when he had a virtual drum battle with a 10-year-old a few years back.
