Metallica and AC/DC Added To Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concert Lineup

Turns out the all-star lineup on the upcoming tribute shows for the late Taylor Hawkins was not yet complete.

Just recently, Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich and AC/DC vocalist Brian Johnson are among the newly-announced list of artists added to the lineup for the concert next month. The pair have joined Geezer Butler, Joe Elliott, and Sebastian Bach as the latest additions to the all-star rock and roll shows in honor of the late Foo Fighters drummer.

Former band mates of Hawkins in Foo Fighters first announced in June that they will be conducting several shows as a tribute to Hawkins, who died at the age of 50. It will take place on September 3 at London’s Wembley Stadium and September 27 at The Kia Forum in Los Angeles.

Aside from the news announcing the addition of new artists, the event is also sharing broadcast and streaming details for the London event. The Foo Fighters, together with the Hawkins family, have teamed up with Paramount to present the September 3 show from Wembley Stadium in its entirety.

It will be directed by Joel Gallen. The full Wembley Stadium show will be available to stream live and on demand across Paramount’s streaming and digital platforms.
