The band has been performing live since June 15, notably playing a show at the Canyon Club in Agoura Hills, California, to a vaccinated audience of 600. They also were the first band to play Madison Square Garden in New York, where they played to a crowd of 15,000, as Billboard notes. Everyone at the MSG show had either been vaccinated or recently tested negative for Covid. After the show, Dave Grohl & Co. posted a triumphant photo to Instagram, captioning, “THANK YOU MADISON SQUARE GARDEN!!! IT WAS A NIGHT WE’LL NEVER FORGET!!! YOU WERE THE LOUDEST @thegarden HAS EVER SEEN!”
