Nita Strauss and her husband Josh Villalta played the Los Angeles Rams halftime show at SoFi Stadium on Sunday.
The set was part of the NFL's Salute to Service game, the Rams' "Battle of Los Angeles" against the Chargers. Their medley ran through the Top Gun theme, Metallica's "For Whom the Bell Tolls," Godsmack's "Awake," Iron Maiden's "The Trooper," "Danger Zone," Foo Fighters' "My Hero," and a mashup of Queen's "We Will Rock You" with Metallica's "Sad But True."
Strauss has been the Rams' official guitarist for seven seasons and earned a Super Bowl ring with the team after Super Bowl LVI. Villalta officially joined the team's game day lineup on drums this year, and their son Max, born in May, was at his first Rams game.
