The Foo Fighters played a highly intimate show in London last night (July 5) to just 100 people.
The band were ushered in by tight security to the upstairs bar at the Proud Gallery in Camden where they played impromptu the set.
No cameras were allowed inside the venue to capture the show and even camera phones were prohibited to be used.
The gig started at 8pm, with Grohl starting the set by giving a ten minute introduction to their as-yet-untitled new album. They then proceeded to debut new album tracks.
The Proud Gallery has previously seen secret performances from the likes of Liam Gallagher with Carl Barat, The Kooks and Dizzee Rascal.
Don’t forget Gigwise Presents… takes place monthly at the Proud Gallery. Our next night is this coming Tuesday (July 10) and features The Moths, smallwhitelight and goFASTER>>.

- Yes, very intimate indeed. The 100 people allowed in were press and EMI. No fans of course..
- a bouncer the size of Japan was checking the guest list and only fat girls and guys who still wear purple ties where going upstairs..
sounds like a nice show..songs you dont know and people that boost your self esteem with their ugliness
- I LOVE FAT CHICKS
- In six months we’ll all be sick of these overplayed tunes. Dave, get behind the kit again and send QOTSA into the stratosphere.
- Gotta love people who leave comments. They always tend to be negative turncoats. Well I reckon I’d have loved being one of the fat chicks or the losers with purple ties if it meant seeing the Foo’s in a 100 perosn gig. Songs you don’t know or not!
