"You have always stood by our band, and we will always stand by you. Like I say at every show, we wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for you guys. And I mean that.
"I thank you from the bottom of my heart. And I will do everything I can to come back and give you a night to remember for the rest of your lives as soon as possible."
Dave Grohl made that promise after being forced on medical grounds to cancel dates due to the snap heard ‘round the world— the fracture incurred in his fall from the stage in Gothenburg, Sweden last month —and Foo Fighters have wasted no time making good on it.
Today (Mon, July 13) the band announced their return to the National Bowl. They will play the venue on September 5 & 6.
The announcement will thrill fans left disappointed when the band had to cancel their planned dates at Wembley Stadium.
Iggy Pop is announced as special guest for both dates, with more artists to be confirmed.
Foo Fighters are currently on tour in North America—playing multiple nights at stadiums and arenas including New York’s Citi Field and the Forum in Los Angeles. They then headline Japan's Fuji Rock Festival before arriving on UK shores.
