Dave Grohl has gone from Nirvana to Foo Fighters to busking on the street at Seattle’s Pike Place Market. He was spotted doing so Saturday afternoon along with singer/songwriter Brandi Carlile.

Carlile posted video on Facebook of the two (along with other musicians) performing at the market — as buskers often do — shortly after 3 p.m.

Grohl performed his song “Times Like These.”

They also performed “Let it be” by The Beatles.

There is no word on how many tips they earned over the afternoon.
