Foo Fighters beat out Arcade Fire, HAIM, The Killers, and LCD Soundsystem to win International Group of the Year at the BRIT Awards last night. The band also recreated “The Sky Is A Neighborhood” music video in a live setting.
While collecting their Best International Group trophy from Tottenham Hotspurs striker Harry Kane and pop star Camila Cabello, Grohl said: “Thank you very much for this award. This means a lot to us because we’ve been coming to the UK for 20-some years now. We’ve always considered this place a second home.
“You’ve been the best audience in the world. You taught us how to be a band, so thank you very much for this award.”
Grohl also mentioned the award being for ‘rock and roll.’ The Foo Fighters also won a Grammy earlier in February, so it’s been a great month for the band as they continue to tour Concrete and Gold.
