I'd be happy if the HS or 606 played a gig at Concorde 2 just after Germany! They've got 10 days off after that one.
There's a 3 week gap between Bonner and Quebec but they might use that for fam time as it's school hols I think in the US? Then it would have to be after San Fran but before the beginning of Sept gigs.. all a bit tight? Don't know if they've ever played the UK later in the year?
A run of arena dates in Winter would make sense given the ampitheater venues in the US. Probably announced the day the album drops so it doesn't wreck the RaR exclusivity.
I know it isn’t Europe, but for the past few weeks I keep getting pushed ads for November’s Iceland Airwaves festival with the tag:
‘This is a call to all music lovers. Iceland Airwaves is back to rock Reykjavík’
It’s known for being predominantly an electronic festival (at least in its inception) so the This Is A Call, the use of the word ‘rock’ and the accompanying illustration of a kid with a guitar has me wondering if it’s dropping subtle clues.
An arena tour would be really good again, although I'm not really sure those days aren't behind them now. Imagine the ticket stress for smaller venues 😂
I'm not sure if the joy to see them in a small venue again would outweigh the stress and panic of the ticket purchase :) i'm happy to wait until next summer for a proper UK tour which I'm sure will come. Roll on Rock AM Ring though...ITS NEXT MONTH :)
yes its blowing my mind right now that Foo Fighters are in Europe next month....with no sign of any visit to UK (that we know of), for shows/TV promotion on the cards
Their profile picture on Twitter is a picture of a walking boot, rather like the one Dave wore on the broken leg tour, and a cast with some writing I can't read.

Very true! I'm expecting nothing so will only be pleasantly surprised. 😎
The Holy Shits are due a comeback no? 🤪😂😉
Same!
Always!
Whatever happened to that band that played a set at V Festival? 606, I think they called themselves...

They’ve played the UK in November through to mid December before 👍
Ok thanks! I wasn’t sure if it had to be a time when the weather was better(ish 😂) …remembering Glasgow mud in the summer!
Many times in the early noughties - it was always Nov - Dec wasn’t it? 2002,2005,2007 etc
Oui, their last UK arena tour was Nov 07 right? Would be lush to see them at an arena! Keep everything crossed.

Yeah although they did Wembley arena in 2011 and obv they did that special birthday at the o2 in 2017
Yeh, sorry I was referencing tours., They were good shows! Will keep my eyes peeled.
Yeah I thought you were ha! Sorry
Me too!

That would be chilly but just think of the short days and the "aurora" in Iceland!
Hot damn!!!!
Hot damn. 🤩 this would be a trip abroad I’d be willing to take for the Foos

I’ve already been losing sleep about this very thought 😂
Haha, all the nightmares!!! It never gets any less daunting.

You say that... (oops, posted twice...)

EXACTLY!
Rumours be a swirling. #notaheadlineshow
Likelihood of this really being Pulp or Blur but y'know.
For reference 'The Churnups' on glasto main stage
Churnups huh
