In a turn of events that came as absolutely no surprise to anyone, the Foo Fighters played their so-called ‘secret’ set on the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury on Friday evening.

While it might not exactly have been as unexpected as originally intended, their arrival delighted the thousands of festival-goers who came to soak in the music and impeccable vibes, singing along enthusiastically to tracks including All My Life and The Pretenders as frontman Dave Grohl dripped with sweat.

The singer later revealed that he had a secret of his own up his sleeve… bringing out his 17-year-old daughter Violet Maye Grohl for a duet.

Half an hour into their set, Dave addressed the crowds… and brought up the elephant in the room.

‘You guys f**king knew it was us huh? You knew it was us!’ the 54-year-old quipped, before adding: ‘We’re not good at secrets.’

Having recalled last performing at Glastonbury in 2017, he added: ‘Well it’s nice to see your face again, it’s been a nice time.

‘Still beautiful, as it always has been. Another beautiful day, another beautiful audience.’

After introducing each member of the band to the audience, Dave then revealed that his daughter, Violet, would be joining him on stage

Describing her as his ‘favourite singer in the world’, the former Nirvana drummer explained that the song that they’d be singing was called Show Me How and was written for his mother, Violet’s grandmother.
