In what’s being described as the best night of her life, Port Alberni teen Madi Duncan was pulled from the audience to sing on stage with Foo Fighters at Rogers Arena in Vancouver Saturday.
Madi Duncan, 16, was standing front row in the crowd when the Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl announced it was time for drummer Taylor Hawkins to sing a song. Hawkins and Grohl then started pointing into the crowd and invited “The girl with the Queen shirt” (Duncan) on stage to sing Queen/David Bowie’s ‘Under Pressure.’ Dave Grohl took over on drums for the song.
Duncan later posted about her experience on Instagram saying she had no clue that it was going to happen and described how Foo Fighters’ music has helped her with her struggles with mental illness.
Duncan is the lead singer of Port Alberni band Stranger Than Fiction which explains her confidence and vocal chops on stage. Below is a photo by Finding Charlotte Photography from Stranger Than Fiction’s show at Port Alberni’s Five Acre Shaker festival.
Foo Fighters also brought up superfan Roxanne Engli of Kamloops on stage as well. She reportedly has attended every Foo Fighters Vancouver show and according to her Twitter profile, was going to be attending the postponed Edmonton and Calgary dates too.
