Foo Fighters<\/a> kicked off their 2026 Take Cover summer stadium tour with a marathon 26-song set at Toronto’s Rogers Stadium.<\/p>\n

You can see the full setlist and video for both the Foo Fighters and the opening act,\u00a0Queens of the Stone Age<\/a>, below.<\/p>\n

After sending plumes of red smoke into the air from their massive stage, the Dave Grohl<\/a>-fronted band started their show with “All My Life” from 2002’s One by One.<\/p>\n

A four song mid-show set at a second stage featured an acoustic take on “Wheels” as well as “Big Me” from their self-titled 1995 album.<\/p>\n

Near the end of the show the group broke out “Caught in the Echo,” the only song they played from their new album,\u00a0Your Favorite Toy. They closed out the evening with “Best of You,” “The Teacher” \u2014 dedicated to Grohl’s late mother Virginia \u2014 and “Everlong.”<\/p>\n

Queens of the Stone Age dropped the re-worked, semi-acoustic sounds of their recent Catacombs tour and returned to full-bore rock during their opening set, which featured three songs in a row each from 2013’s …Like Clockwork and 2002’s Songs for the Deaf.<\/p>\n

The Take Cover tour will turn up in Detroit Rock City on Thursday night, and is scheduled to conclude on Sept. 26 in Las Vegas. You can see the complete tour itinerary further below.<\/p>\n
