Remembering when Trent Reznor, Lindsey Buckingham, Josh Homme and Dave Grohl formed a supergroup at the Grammys

Musicians Dean Fertina, Lindsey Buckingham (of Fleetwood Mac), Trent Reznor (of Nine Inch Nails), Dave Grohl, and Josh Homme of Queens of the Stone Age perform onstage during the 56th GRAMMY Awards at Staples Center on January 26, 2014 in Los Angeles, California

Dave Grohl is involved in a lot of live guest scenarios, but when he plays with Josh Homme it's serious business: he puts his drumming gloves on. We've seen it before with Queens Of The Stone Age and Them Crooked Vultures, but throwing Fleetwood Mac legend Lindsey Buckingham and Nine Inch Nails maestro Trent Reznor into the mix? Now that's an event.

While Grohl had appeared on a number of tracks from Nine In Nails' 2004 album With Teeth, a live scenario with Buckingham in the mix proved as intriguing as it looked on paper. The temporary supergroup emerged at the conclusion of the 2014 Grammys in a performance that would hit headlines for the wrong reasons – it got cut off early, resulting in Reznor lashing out at the organisers with "a heartfelt F--- YOU guys" and a kind-of apology from Grammys Executive producer Ken Ehrlich – who was under his own pressures.
