P!NK Steals the Show with Cover of 'Babe I'm Gonna Leave You' at FireAid: Watch
The post P!NK Steals the Show with Cover of 'Babe I'm Gonna Leave You' at FireAid: Watch appeared first on Consequence. On Thursday night, P!NK was one of many artists who performed at the FireAid benefit concert, taking the stage at the Kia Forum for an impassioned set that included a cover of Led Zeppelin's version of 'Babe I'm Gonna Leave You.' P!NK began her portion of the night with a rendition of 2017 song 'What About Us,' after which she told the crowd that she was going to 'keep my feet on the ground' with 'a couple of songs that bring me comfort.' She then launched into a stirring cover of the Janis Joplin classic 'Me and Bobby McGee.' After belting her heart out on the 'Bobby McGee' outro — which made her 'almost pass out' — she took a drink and asked the audience 'We got any Led Zeppelin fans out there?' Responding to their applause, she said 'Alright, thank God' and introduced the next song: her version of 'Babe I'm Gonna Leave You.' P!NK, of course, is a very talented vocalist, and brought those skills to her take on the song, leaning into its bluesy feel with a smoky grit, and soulfully wailing over its high-energy breakdowns. For the climax, her guitarist delivered a blistering solo. Watch a clip of the performance below. FireAid was organized to raise relief funds for Los Angeles after devastating wildfires his the city earlier this month. The concert was held across two venues, and featured performances by Nirvana, Green Day and Billie Eilish, Joni Mitchell, Anderson .Paak and Dr. Dre, Lady Gaga, No Doubt, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Olivia Rodrigo, Stevie Nicks, Jelly Roll, Sting, Stephen Stills, John Mayer, Earth, Wind, & Fire, and more.

Nirvana's Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic, and Pat Smear Reunite for Surprise Performance at FireAid: Watch
The post Nirvana's Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic, and Pat Smear Reunite for Surprise Performance at FireAid: Watch appeared first on Consequence. Nirvana's Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic, and Pat Smear reunited at the FireAid benefit concert, where they were joined by St. Vincent, Kim Gordon, Joan Jett, and Violet Grohl for a number of Nirvana songs. Watch clips of the performances below. The reunion was a highlight of the evening, and came as a surprise amidst the two-venue benefit show's already-stacked lineup. St. Vincent started things off, playing a rendition of 'Breed' with Novoselic on bass and Grohl on drums — marking the latter's first public musical performance since his extramarital scandal last year. Gordon was next to fill in for the late Kurt Cobain, taking center stage to perform 'School.' After her, Novoselic introduced Jett, who led a rocking version of 'Territorial Pissings.' Then, with Novoselic on accordion and Gordon on bass, Grohl's daughter, Violet, took the stage for the final song, 'All Apologies.' Last month, it was announced that she was working on her debut album, after touring with Foo Fighters for several years. Earlier this month, her dad was seen making chili for families displaced by the wildfires. FireAid was organized to raise for relief efforts in Los Angeles after the city was hit with devastating wildfires earlier this month.
