Foo Fighters expected to make it back on stage for US tour
By Chris Cooke | Published on Tuesday 30 June 2015
Despite speculation that Dave Grohl’s broken leg might impact on the Foo Fighter’s upcoming North American tour, a tweet yesterday implied that won’t be the case.
The band were forced to cancel a number of European dates, of course, including their planned Glastonbury slot last weekend, after Grohl fell of stage during a gig in Sweden earlier this month and broke his leg.
The outfit’s US tour is due to kick off this weekend in Washington, and despite fears Grohl’s injuries might affect those dates too, the band tweeted yesterday: “Can’t f***ing wait for the 4th!!! See you at home, DC”
So there you go. Whatever, presumably Grohl will be back in full performing mode by next June, which is why his band are early favourites to headline next year’s Glastonbury Festival, amidst rumours they were rebooked as soon as they had to pull out this year.
Coldplay, Blur and Prince are the next favourites for Glasto 2016 headline slots, in terms of the odds you’ll get from the bookies. Emily Eavis, of course, has said all three headliners are already booked for next year.
