Just six days before his death, Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins performed a cover version of 'Somebody to Love' at Lollapalooza Festival in Argentina.

Queen was Hawkins' favourite band, and Hawkins swapped places with frontman Dave Grohl for the performance.

He also paid tribute to his bandmate, telling the crowd: "I f--king love Dave Grohl, man. I'd be delivering pizzas if it wasn't for f--kin' Dave Grohl. I'd be managing the drum department at a Guitar Center if it wasn't for Dave Grohl."
