As luck would have it, Foo Fighters and Rick Astley were both on the bill at last weekend’s Summer Sonic Festival in Japan.
During their own headlining set, Foo Fighters invited Astley onstage to join them in performing his No. 1 single-turned-viral meme, “Never Gonna Give You Up”.
During their own set, which headlined the festival, the Foo Fighters invited Rick Astley up on stage to join them in performing his No. 1 single-turned-viral meme, Never Gonna Give You Up.
In a funny twist though, the band trolled the crowd by playing the song in the style of Nirvana’s Smells Like Teen Spirit.
It was only after Astley began singing the lyrics to Never Gonna Give You Up, that the onstage “Rick roll” became evident.
You can check out the light hearted performance in our video box.
