Wow, four rhythm guitars compared to two sure makes a difference. Love this version. You can tell the Foo Fighters really enjoy playing this song especially with Joan. Most rock bands respect this song as a classic.
+scott sailer so damn TRUE ,i mean look at the difference between this and with the blackhearts ,i think the first original blackhearts are much better then the new ones ! with the foo fighters it is electric !
My favorite thing about the Foo Fighters is that they are clearly fans of the same music I love. If I had their talent I'd play with all my heroes too.
The 4 guitarist in this video have been in the following bands: Scream Nirvana QOTSA Them Crooked Vultures The Germs The Adolescents Nirvana The Runaways The Blackhearts No Use For a Name Me First & The Gimme Gimmes That's an impressive CV.
Thanks for posting this. Maybe the single most blistering rock and roll video ever put on UA-cam. When you look at either male OR female front "men"... in the entire history of rock and roll... Joan is in a class by herself. Nobody like her before and nobody like her since.
I was never into the Foo Fighters too much when they were popular, but since then, that damned Dave Grohl has impressed me. Everything I see him do is impressive, including his brilliant Ice Bucket Challenge video. And of course he's a Rush fan. To see him on the same stage as Joan Jett is like seeing Einstein come together with Ptolemy. OK, that's a totally shitty analogy. It's an amazing confluence of talent, THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING.
Joan is a rock legend for sure. She always sounds great. But having the foo fighters as her band was killer.

Her and Dave rocking out on guitar together is kick ass
I don't know why people are saying anything negative about this, this was pretty close to perfect and this was live in a small studio!
damn right..
Never knew they did this. Absolutely electric. RIP Taylor
The Foo Fighters backing up the legend Joan Jett.....Everybody on stage with big smiles.....Hardcore Rock n Roll.....
My neighbors loved it so much they threw a small couch through my window so they could hear it better!
Underrated comment 😂
😂
I love how Pat just loves being on stage. You can see its his happy place.
Look at how much Taylor is smiling. RIP Legend
best version!
joan jett playing with pat smear about 30 years later after producing The Germs' album, she's awesome
I feel like Taylor Hawkins has more fun performing than any other drummer ever.
and he's really fuckin' good too..one of the best..
The guy from Def Leppard only has half as much
Josh Freese has more fun
Reni is the best drummer ever and you only have to watch him to realise he has more fun than any other drummer 🍋
Joan has always needed a great backing band! the Blackhearts are good but man listen to the energy with a band like the Foos!
scott sailer Sorry, but WTF are u talking about? Please explain.
It needs no explaination. The black hearts are good, but with the Foo's behind her, it goes to a next level. You may not agree but hey its ok.
It's cool
I thought the same...to me the original Blackhearts were the best...in the last few years...meh...but yeah the opening I was like whoa...
+scott sailer so damn TRUE ,i mean look at the difference between this and with the blackhearts ,i think the first original blackhearts are much better then the new ones ! with the foo fighters it is electric !
Didn’t knew how much it will hurt me to see Taylor in an old video …
Keep the number of moving parts to a minimum, crank it to 11, and drive that truck straight at the audience.
James Daniels That, my friend, is an AWESOME analogy!
punk rock
This gives me chills everytime i watch it
Joan is still the best damn female rocker out there. Legendary Rock Goddess.
The combo we never knew we needed 🫡
Joan is still fucking awesome wow great performance
Pat Smear looks like the happiest man on earth whilst playing this song.
One of the best performances I’ve ever seen on the Letterman show!
Joan still sounds great live, at 53 years old. Dave sounds good live, but it's easy to hear who the the better singer is.
Joan’s a better singer, Dave has better stage presence imo. But both terrific acts.
dave vocal line in this video were so much more difficults to do than joans
@@JohnnyMaiaaa Fair point dude....
@@JohnnyMaiaaa Please, his vocals suck, as usual!
Awesome! Looks like they're all having a blast!
if you don't like this, we can't be friends
Don't act like that.. lol
@@iwasdxbeforedxwascool9020 hell yes act like that! This way amazing!
i love them so much
Saw her with the Runaway's when they opened for The Ramones in Orlando. 1978, I believe. My ears are still ringing.
there's so much energy in this. i love it.
Excellent! I would have loved to have heard her play this with The Ramones as well. I've always thought she'd be a great Joanie Ramone.
Joan is ALWAYS fucking awesome!!!!!!!!!!
So glad I found this....I was in the crowd for this Late Show performance and I've been a Foo Fighters fan ever since.
Rock & Roll at it's finest
Love how Dave is head banging as he’s playing 🤘🎸
Nothing like four guitar players in a band.
Who wouldn't kill to be part of that lineup, playing that song on Letterman.
Joan Jett is everything I want to be.
me too and im a man
Me too if i was a woman haha
This is impressive. The understatement of all time..
Wow great performance
J.J. defines R & R!
My favorite thing about the Foo Fighters is that they are clearly fans of the same music I love. If I had their talent I'd play with all my heroes too.
Nothing better.
David Letterman was the last of the great late night talk show hosts
Damn this is epic live performance ever!
I saw this live on tv. It was something.
OK now I'm a Foo Fighters fan.. This is bad ass..
The 4 guitarist in this video have been in the following bands:
Scream
Nirvana
QOTSA
Them Crooked Vultures
The Germs
The Adolescents

RIP Taylor
You can NEVER have enough guitars!
Awesome, wish Foos would do more punk! I know it’s where they came from and I think I saw Pat smiling on this one! 🤟🏻

OMG THIS HEAVEN........
Oh gosh everyone having fun there
Love the way Joan Jett looks at Dave @3:11.
This is amazing! Love Joan and the Foos! and together wow!
Hell Yeah!!!!!

Omg I really love this song.
I don't think there's a person in the world that loves their job more than Dave. (Possible exception, Pat Smear)
Dave is a old head banger! Respect. Love the Foos n Joan too!!
Not a headbanger.
Totally Awesome and look how happy Pat looks :)
Trish McGlynn Nate Mandel looks great with long hair
Fuck yeah!!!!!
Bad Reputation on Steroids, love it....
Gave me chills!

Now that is what i call a rock song.
Got enough guitars? Count ‘em … 5
Enjoy!
Pat's in heaven.
Christopher Townsend, if someone doesn't like this, they have no taste, and i got two words for them!!!!!!!!
Hey, Dave didn't ask the drummer if those are his drums.
Awesome! BTW I wonder if Dave Letterman still got a crush on Joan.
Fuck me this is good....
that's a whole lot of guitar
FLYING!
Shrek💚
