One of the highlights of the performance was when Queens Of The Stone Age’s Homme took to the stage and helped break out David Bowie’s “Let’s Dance”, INXS’s “Need You Tonight”, Tom Petty’s “Running Down a Dream” and Warren Zevon’s “Werewolves of London”. Other classic songs on the set list included Led Zeppelin’s “Ramble On”, The Who’s “Baba O’Rilley”, Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs”, Radiohead’s “Creep”, The Cure’s “Just Like Heaven” and The Beatles’ “Helter Skelter”

This was not the first time that Homme has taken to the stage to play a cover of a David Bowie track. Back in 2022, he also joined Nile Rodgers, Omar Hakim, Supergrass’ Gaz Coombes and Jane’s Addiction’s Chris Chaney to play a few Bowie songs at the tribute show for Foo Fighters’ drummer Taylor Hawkins.
