Around 2001, the Foo Fighters established a relationship with the English rock band Queen , as they (particularly Grohl and Hawkins ) were fans. That March, Grohl and Hawkins inducted them into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and joined them to perform the 1976 classic, ” Tie Your Mother Down “, with Hawkins playing drums alongside Roger Taylor . The guitarist Brian May added a guitar track to the Foo Fighters’ second cover of Pink Floyd ‘s ” Have a Cigar “, which appeared on the soundtrack to the movie Mission: Impossible 2 . In 2002, May contributed guitar to “Tired of You” and the outtake “Knucklehead”. The Foo Fighters and Queen have performed together on several occasions since, including VH1 Rock Honors and the Foo Fighters’ headlining concert in Hyde Park .
