Watch as Taylor Hawkins’ son sits in with the Foo Fighters on their current tour

Last week, the Foo Fighters began their first headliner tour since the death of Taylor Hawkins. Josh Freese is the drummer (at least for the time being) but the Foos are open to special guests. Two shows in and it’s becoming quite the family affair.

Dave’s daughter Violet stepped onstage during the tour opener in New Hampshire to sing on a new song called “Shame Shame.” She also returned for a couple of songs during this weekend’s second show (Boston Common).

Then Taylor’s son Shane was invited to play drums on “I’ll Stick Around.” Take a look.
