Watch Foo Fighters & Roger Waters Get Epic On Jimmy Fallon

By Johnny Firecloud

The week of late-night Pink Floyd tributes continued last night, with Foo Fighters appearing on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon to provide backing support to Roger Waters.

Watch below as Foo Waters – if you will – tear off a fantastic rendition of In The Flesh, off the landmark Floyd album The Wall. You Grohl maniacs out there will likely feel a bit disappointed, as Dave doesn’t even sing backup on the song. The band is entirely there for support of Waters.

Waters also sat for an infrequent interview with a giddy Fallon, reminiscing about the band’s early days (with an organ player 40 years their senior) and had a few kind words for the Shins’ cover of Breathe from the previous night.

The rest of Fallon’s Floyd tribute week should be interesting, with MGMT, Dierks Bentley and Pearl Jam turning in their own homages to the band. Stay tuned.
