Rock band Foo Fighters have announced that they will be heading to Glasgow next summer as part of their Everything Or Nothing At All Tour.

Foo Fighters have announced the dates for their 'Everything or Nothing at All' UK tour which will hit UK shores next summer.

Foo Fighters have announced a UK tour for 2024.Today, June 27, Dave Grohl and co. took to social media to announce the UK leg of the ‘Everything Or Nothing At All’ tour, which will see them perform in Manchester, Glasgow, London, Cardiff and Birmingham between 13 June and 27 June next year.Supporting acts for these shows include Wet Leg, Courtney Barnett, Loose Articles, Honeyblood, Shame, Hot Milk and Himalayas.Pre-sale tickets to Foo Fighters’ 2024 UK tour begin tomorrow, June 28, at 9am BST, and will end on Thursday June 28 at 10pm BST.

Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl dedicated the last song of the band’s surprise set on Glastonbury’s Pyramid stage to their late drummer Taylor Hawkins. The US rock band stormed through a number of hit songs during the hour-long performance – their first time at the world-famous festival since 2017.There had been high speculation that the Foo Fighters would take to the main stage on Friday from 6.15pm in a slot which was billed under the name The Churnups. An hour before the slot, the band posted a photo of flags within the festival crowd, one with the phrase Churn It Up brandished across it, and tagged the post #Glastonbury2023.

Rihanna has stepped down as the CEO of Savage X Fenty.The 35 year old Umbrella singer has announced that she will be stepping down four months after revealing she was expecting her second child with A$AP Rocky. Rihanna founded the lingerie brand back in 2018 and has been the CEO up until her announcement in a statement which was released by Vogue Business today. "It's been beautiful to see our vision for Savage X Fenty impact the industry at such an incredible magnitude over the last five years," the global icon said.

Glastonbury Festival on Friday, Foo Fighters took the Pyramid Stage for a surprise appearance that marked the band’s first appearance at the English extravaganza since 2017.It was also the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame band’s first full show in the UK since the death of their beloved drummer, Taylor Hawkins, in 2022.Although there were rumors that the ChurnUps were actually the Foos, it wasn’t confirmed until a tweet about an hour before their set.“You guys knew it was us the whole time, didn’t you?” said Foo frontman Dave Grohl. “It’s nice to see your faces again.”And then Foo Fighters launched into an hour-long set that included hits such as “All My Life,” “Learn to Fly,” “The Pretender” and “Best Of You” as well as short covers of Metallica’s “Enter Sandman,” Black Sabbath’s “Paranoid” and the Beastie Boys’ “Sabotage.”“We’ve only got one hour so we gotta make sure we fit in all the songs we can,” said Grohl. The set included a slow, stripped-down version of “My Hero” that many felt was a tribute to Hawkins, who actually received an official dedication on “Everlong.”But he wasn’t the only dearly departed loved one that the Foo Fighters remembered at Glastonbury.

Noel Gallagher has shared his thoughts on Guns N’ Roses headlining Glastonbury this weekend, describing the bill topping slot as “crazy shit”.The US band will perform on the Pyramid Stage this Saturday (June 24), in between Arctic Monkeys on Friday (23) and Elton John on Sunday (25).The former Oasis musician, however, has questioned the thinking behind the decision, suggesting that the honour could have gone to a British act instead.“I thought, ‘What? Are you being serious? That’s crazy shit’,” he told the Daily Star‘s ‘Wired’ column, recalling the moment he found out Guns N’ Roses were headlining the iconic British festival.“When you think of all the huge British artists who’ve had albums out this past year, having Guns N’ Roses headlining the Saturday is mad.”Explaining his own absence from Worthy Farm this year – as both a performer and a punter – Gallagher, who released his new album ‘Council Skies’ with the High Flying Birds earlier this month, said his schedule didn’t allow for it.“I would have been smart to play Glastonbury this year, but I played it last year because I’d been booked to do it in 2020 and everything got pushed back,” he said.“There’s always next year to go back to Glastonbury – I’m not going anywhere.“Because of lockdown, the band hadn’t played together for ages – and touring again is joyous.”The singer also explained that he’ll be performing at some smaller festivals instead this year, including PennFest in Buckinghamshire, Splendour Festival in Nottingham and West Yorkshire’s Bingley Weekender.“What I like about boutique festivals is that pretty much everyone will go to see you,” he said.“That makes the festival more like one of our own gigs.

Foo Fighters were joined onstage by Paramore frontwoman Hayley Williams during their set at Bonnaroo. Check out footage of the moment below, as well as the full setlist.The set at this year’s Bonnaroo in Tennessee marked the latest of many upcoming festival appearances Foo Fighters are set to make this summer, and saw them take to the stage as the headliners for the US event yesterday (June 18).Kicking off with a rendition of their 2002 hit ‘All My Life’, taken from their fourth studio album ‘One By One’, the set ran for 19 songs, and featured fan favourites including ‘Learn To Fly’, ‘The Pretender’ and ‘Best Of You’.A key highlight from the gig arrived during the second half, however, when the American rock veterans were joined onstage by Paramore frontwoman Hayley Williams.

Noel Gallagher has said that songs he’s performing live off his latest album ‘Council Skies‘ aren’t getting a good reception from his US audiences.The High Flying Birds singer, songwriter and guitarist said in a new interview that the response to him opening his sets with new material has been “terrible” so far.He told Rolling Stone: “[It’s] terrible. I’m starting off with [four or] five new ones.

Noel Gallagher has been announced to perform during a special Later…With Jools Holland episode that’s dedicated entirely to him.Holland revealed his forthcoming appearance “later in the series” during last night’s (June 10) episode of the show on BBC Two.He also previewed the special with Gallagher’s live performance of ‘Open The Door, See What You Find’, taken from his new album ‘Council Skies‘. You can view footage below.The performance will feature a number of live takes from his recent LP.It comes after Arctic Monkeys recently featured in special dedicated entirely to them last November.That show saw the Sheffield band join host Holland for an intimate performance of songs from their album ‘The Car‘, including ‘There’d Better Be A Mirrorball‘ and ‘Body Paint‘.Meanwhile, Gallagher was last night serenaded by Manchester City fans at a bar in San Diego after he was unable to attend the Champions League final in Istanbul due to touring commitments in the US.Speaking about not attending the final earlier this week, he told the club’s official website: “I won’t be in Istanbul – I always make sure the dates around the Champions League are free and usually that’s always around the end of May.

Oasis fans are calling on Liam Gallagher to keep a promise he made about a reunion following Manchester City’s Champions League win last night (June 10).The Gallaghers’ beloved team won their first European title on Saturday, defeating Inter Milan in Istanbul to complete a treble after winning the Premier League and FA Cup in recent weeks.Ahead of the final, Liam had tweeted promising that he would bury the hatchet with brother Noel for an Oasis reunion if the team triumphed in the Champions League.“If Man City wins the Champions League i call my brother and i bring back the fuckin band together LG x,” he tweeted.After last night’s win, fans are now taking Liam up on the promise, calling on him to deliver the Oasis reunion like he promised.“Anyone got the dialling code for San Diego?” one fan account joked, referring to Noel’s whereabouts on a current US tour.

Noel Gallagher has said that champagne will be falling from the skies over Manchester after his beloved City beat Inter to win the Champions League Final. Noel regularly attends City games home and away but missed out on the Blues securing their first European cup to secure the treble in Istanbul last night.

Foo Fighters have claimed their sixth number one album today with ‘But Here We Are’.Midweek, Foo Fighters surpassed Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds in the race for the number one spot on the Official Album Charts.Both released their latest full-length albums last Friday (June 2) and the competition was one of the closest chart battles in recent years. Dave Grohl and co ultimately triumphed over Gallagher – who took the number two spot – after racking up 44,500 chart units to earn their number one.‘But Here We Are’ was the band’s first album since the sudden death of Taylor Hawkins last March.Prior to this, the Foos topped the Official Albums Chart with ‘One By One’ (2002), ‘Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace’ (2007), ‘Wasting Light’ (2011), ‘Concrete And Gold’ (2017) and ‘Medicine At Midnight’ (2021).Foo Fighters’ latest 11th studio album received a five-star review from NME, who hailed it as being “a beautiful, noisy celebration of brotherhood and a stark, painful exploration of loss.”“It is messy, gut-wrenching, ambitious and gorgeous, as the remaining members of Foo Fighters push themselves to their limits and beyond,” it read.

Foo Fighters secure their sixth Official Number 1 album with But Here We Are, following a closely-fought race against Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds.

Liam Gallagher has taken to Twitter to respond after his brother Noel said he “fucking dares” him to call him up and discuss an Oasis reunion.The comments arose during a recent interview with Seattle radio station 98.9 KPNW, when Noel was asked about the possibility of an Oasis reunion.Here, Noel — who is currently touring in the US in support of his latest High Flying Birds album ‘Council Skies’ — insisted that neither he nor his brother want the reunion to take place. He also stated that although Liam continues to say he wants Oasis to reform online, if he did want to make the prospect into a reality he would have already called him up to organise it.“Look, he’s gonna have to call me.

Foo Fighters have confirmed that their long-awaited UK tour is set to take place in 2024.The upcoming tour will be in support of their latest LP, ‘But Here We Are’, which arrived last week ( June 2) and marked their 11th studio album. It also marks their first album without longtime drummer Taylor Hawkins, following his death while on tour in Columbia last March.Now, in a new update shared on their official website, Dave Grohl and co.

It's all change at the top in the race for this week's Official Number 1 album, as Foo Fighters edge just ahead of Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, the Official Charts Company can reveal.

Foo Fighters and Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds are currently in a neck-and-neck race to reach the Number One spot on the UK album charts this week.Both acts released their latest LPs — ‘But Here We Are’ and ‘Council Skies’ — last Friday (June 2) and as it stands, it is too close to call which one will reach the peak position on the Official Album Chart by the end of this week.Currently at the midweek mark, Noel Gallagher has surpassed the American rockers and stands as the UK’s best-selling album with his fourth solo album with High Flying Birds. That being said, the two remain almost neck and neck, as just 200 units separate them from first and second position.The victory would no doubt mark an important milestone for Foo Fighters, as ‘But Here We Are’ marks their first full-length LP since the death of drummer Taylor Hawkins in March last year.

The stage is set for one of the closest races for Number 1 in recent memory, as Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds and Foo Fighters gear up for a tough battle on the Official Albums Chart.  

Foo Fighters have expanded their world tour with new dates in Australia and New Zealand, set to take place over the end of 2023 and start of 2024.The tour, announced today (June 5), will commence on November 29 in Perth before taking the band to Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane throughout December, followed by Auckland, Christchurch and Wellington the following month. The Chats will serve as main support on four of the Australian dates, while UK duo Hot Milk will join the band as openers in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.
