Rock legend Dave Grohl has been officially added to the highly anticipated Saturday Night Live 50th-anniversary concert, and fans are beyond excited! The Foo Fighters frontman will join an already star-studded lineup for the massive celebration, set to take place later this year.
A Perfect Match for ‘SNL’
Grohl’s connection to SNL is undeniable—he holds the record for the most musical guest appearances by any musician in the show’s history. From his days with Nirvana to his legendary career with Foo Fighters, Grohl has been a staple on the iconic sketch comedy show for decades.
“I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve played SNL,” Grohl joked in a past interview. “It feels like a second home to me.”
With such deep ties to the show, his addition to the anniversary concert seems like a no-brainer. Fans are now speculating about whether he will perform solo, with the Foo Fighters, or possibly join forces with other rock legends for an unforgettable moment.
What to Expect from the 50th-Anniversary Concert
NBC has been tight-lipped about the full lineup, but sources say the event will feature a mix of past cast members, top-tier musical performances, and surprise guest appearances. Given SNL’s history of legendary musical moments, this concert could go down as one of the biggest TV events of the year.
Social media exploded after the announcement, with fans expressing their excitement over Grohl’s participation.
“Dave Grohl is the KING of rock and the KING of SNL,” one Twitter user wrote. “This is gonna be insane!”
When and Where to Watch
The SNL 50th-anniversary special is set to air later this year on NBC and will also be available for streaming on Peacock. While the exact concert date is still under wraps, expect more details to be revealed in the coming weeks.
One thing’s for sure—if Dave Grohl is involved, it’s going to be EPIC!
