Foo Fighters are set to make a surprise appearance at Glastonbury this weekend, according to reports. The
American rock band – fronted by former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl – are reportedly taking to the Pyramid stage at 6.10pm on Friday evening. The slot is currently being held by a mysterious act called The Churnups, which was previously believed to have referred to band Pulp. It comes a year after Dave Grohl took to the Pyramid stage for a surprise appearance during Paul McCartney's headline set. Legendary artist David Hockney is also believed to have done the graphics for the band's performance, as they perform some of their greatest hits at the Worthy Farm
music festival to hundreds of thousands of festival goers.

Last month the chart topping band returned to touring after Hawkin's shock death. They also released an emotional album titled But Here We Are dedicated to his memory. 50-year-old Hawkins was found dead last year in his luxury hotel room from a 'cardiovascular collapse' believed to be induced by a drug binge whilst the band was on tour in Columbia.

Now that we’ve returned from our first run of shows, I felt compelled to reach out and thank you all for being there for us. "Every night, when I see you singing, it makes me sing harder,” Grohl writes. “When I see you screaming, it makes me scream louder. When I see your tears, it brings me to tears. And when I see your joy, it brings me joy.” The Pyramid stage has hosted musical acts including The Rolling Stones, Jay-Z, Neil Diamond, Johnny Cash and Oasis ( Image: Getty Images) "But I see you… and it feels good to see you, churning up these emotions together.
