Summary

Foo Fighters took to the stage with a new guitar player for their first live show of 2026 at Feria Estatal de León in Mexico on Saturday.

The band were joined by stand-in guitarist Jason Falkner, who has been drafted in after Pat Smear suffered a broken foot.

In this week's episode, we profile Jason - a respected musician, producer and songwriter - who has worked with the likes of Beck, St Vincent and Paul McCartney.

And we recap the León performance with Cristian Macouzet, who was present to see the band play in his home city.
