Jett had previously performed with the band when Nirvana were inducted into the Rock ’N’ Roll Hall Of Fame back in April 2014.

Earlier that week, the Everlong rockers left fans speculating about a possible performance at music event, after sharing an announcement that Joan Jett would be playing the event.

Posting the tweet, they wrote: "CAN'T WAIT!!!! What else could we have up our sleeves?? Stay tuned.... #CalJam18".

Earlier, Foo Fighters had played an 18-song set that had begun with their newest material from 2017's Concrete And Gold album and climaxed with a rendition of their very first single, This Is A Call.
