Foo Fighters adding extra tickets for UK summer tour

Foo Fighters have extra tickets available for their UK leg of their ‘Everything Or Nothing At All Tour’ this summer.

Dave Grohl and co have announced more tickets will go on sale at 9am BST on Friday (10.05.24) for their pair of London Stadium concerts, as well as Manchester, Glasgow, Cardiff, and Birmingham.

The ‘Everlong’ rockers wrote on X: “UK!!! Announcing extra tickets are being made available at each show on the Everything or Nothing At All Tour!!! The additional tickets will be on sale Friday, 10 May at 9am BST.

“See all upcoming shows: https://FooFighters.lnk.to/Shows.”

The support acts for the jaunt are Wet Leg, Courtney Barnett, and Shame.

Meanwhile, Josh Freese recently admitted he “wishes” he wasn’t in the Foo Fighters.

The rock star joined the band in 2023 to take the place of late drummer Taylor Hawkins – who died in 2022 at the age of 50 – but finds the whole thing to be “bittersweet” because the pair were on friendly terms with each other for more than two decades.

He told the Daily Star newspaper’s Wired column: “It continues to be bittersweet. Part of me wants to say like I wish I wasn’t there at all. I wish there wasn’t a reason for me to be the drummer in Foo Fighters. I was friendly acquaintances with Taylor for like 25 years and then in the last five/six years we became a lot closer, which makes the whole thing even more odd.”

Josh – who plays alongside Dave, Nate Mendel, Chris Shiflett Pat Smear, Rami Jaffee – knew most of them in some form before joining but recalled feeling that there would be no way for the ‘Best of You’ rockers to continue when Taylor died of an overdose.

He said: “I’ve known Chris Shiflett and Rami Jaffee for 30 years, well before they were in the band, and I met Dave before he was in Nirvana.. I met Dave at a concert at Cal State Long Beach in like 1990 when he was in Scream. After Taylor’s passing, first thing I thought was how are these guys going to move on from this – Taylor was such an important component, on and off stage. And he wasn’t just a drummer, you know. He was such a big personality. [I thought] ‘Are they even going to go on…does Dave go solo now?'”

June 17 – Hampden Stadium, Glasgow
