Rick Astley showed up to a Foo Fighters concert with his wife, just planning to enjoy the show. But then a roadie handed him a mic and said, “Dave Grohl wants you onstage.” Stunned, Rick barely had time to react before he was walking into the spotlight. The band had learned Never Gonna Give You Up—and they were playing it. For him. Jet-lagged and a little tipsy, he grabbed the mic and let instinct take over. The crowd exploded. 50,000 people singing and dancing as Rick rocked out with the Foo Fighters. Later, he laughed on the radio: “I lost myself.
