Foo Fighters Draw Record American Crowd at Denver’s Mile High Stadium

If you attended the Foo Fighters concert at Empower Field at Mile High on Saturday, you witnessed a landmark event.Frontman Dave Grohl addressed the crowd, saying, “this is the biggest American Foo Fighters show we have ever played in 30 years.” AEG Presents Rocky Mountains, the live entertainment company promoting their “Everything or Nothing at All Tour,” confirmed that the show drew over 50,000 people, making it the band’s largest audience ever as a headline act in the U.S.

The Pretenders and Mammoth WVH served as opening acts for the band on Saturday night.

The Foo Fighters were formed by former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl in 1993. The current lineup includes Chris Shiflett, Nate Mendel, Pat Smear, Rami Jaffee, and drummer Josh Freese, who recently joined following the death of longtime drummer Taylor Hawkins in 2022.

This tour follows the band’s 11th album, “But Here We Are,” released last year. The Foo Fighters kicked off their U.S. stadium shows at New York’s Citi Field on July 17 before their stop in Denver on August 3. Their tour will conclude on September 29 at the Soundside Music Festival in Bridgeport, Connecticut.
