Foo Fighters appear to have cancelled their touring plans for 2025. Hellfest founder Ben Barbaud confirmed the news, saying the band were previously set to perform at the festival.
Barbaud told Le Parisien the following about Foo Fighters, while addressing Muse's headlining slot:
Foo Fighters cancelled their summer tour.
They were offered to me on a platter. A month ago, I was offered to program them with a handful of other European festivals.
Foo Fighters having cancelled their summer tour, Muse was called in as reinforcements. I accepted because I was missing a headliner on Friday and because the Hellfest audience is more and more open. With age, I too have matured, I am less sectarian.
I created this festival for the love of punk, hardcore and at the beginning for the purists. But today, I prefer to shock them than to always do the same artists.
Foo Fighters' recent inactivity follows a confession from frontman Dave Grohl, who admitted to fathering a child outside of his marriage.

Dave Grohl killed his best friend. Got some chump to replace him on a shitty salary and it's business as usual.
"But today, I prefer to shock them than to always do the same artists." Love how in this day and age booking super popular mainstream bands is considered some kind of rebellious and bold move
This band killed hundreds of thousands of people their lives with their support of AIDS denial/conspiracy groups. They convinced people with AIDS that as long as they aren't gay or on drugs, they're fine! Then all those people died and Foo Fighters quietly ceased their support of the 'movement'. Look into it.
Even worse is how 2 of the members take PREP to stay safe and recommend it to others. How the f*ck can you be so hypocritical ???

Rebellion is apparently sounding like all the legacy bands that get booked as headliners for hard rock festivals.
^ hi. You are missing the part where every hardcore, metalcore and metal band is now considered legacy. The genre is dead. It's all out of date garbage beating a dead horse. At least Foo Fighters is fresh and good. Unlike this tired bullshit genre for the last 25 years.

Dave should have ended the Foos when Taylor overdosed in South America. Kurt died and he grieved and made new music. Taylor died and there was no grieving, Dave was a slave to Ticketmaster and corporate gigs and the huge $$$. He has at least $200 million in the bank . The rest of the Foos have at least $25-50 million in the bank. Dave make new music , tour with a new band . Promise Ticketmaster, In ten years you will do a foo reunion cash grab
What the f*ck with the comments section looking like the Matrix?
"Dave's wife has him on a short leash..he isn't leaving Encino to fly to Europe to potentially get some other chick pregnant." ^This. I'm sure they're currently in couples counseling working on their problems.
Dave's on the Epstein list being released in two weeks.
Dave Grohl was on his way to kill Euronymous but settled on Kurt Cobain instead.
I think Dave truly f*cked up on this one. Every female loved him. They all loved Everlong. After what he did, the female audience will never see him the same. The only thing that would make sense is if he goes on 20/20 or 60 minutes with his wife and talk about it. Otherwise it's just a bunch more shows just to fill arenas. The days of musicians having privacy in the real world is over. Dave Grohl is too famous to f*ck up like this. If they decide to try and tour without addressing this, they'll most likely get booed. No one else's fault. The band didn't deserve this. Dave needs to be very calculated with his moves going forward. Ultimately he should just call it quits and do something else. Them Crooked Vultures would be great cause he'd be on drums and would just sit there and STFU
Well, well, well, how the turntables... ---Michael Scott
Good. I'm not interested in seeing them anymore. Used to respect Dave, now he's just another cheating man that destroyed his marriage and daughter's lives. Way to go selfish prick.
They need to replace Dave. Let him do what he needs to do. Who knows how long. The band needs to do what they need to do.... Make money
Dave Grohl is a f*cking c*nt. Foo Fighters suck donkey dick.
Has nothing to do with a kid or any off the crap they are saying. He is losing his voice.
omg is covid back mask up please stay safe and get vaccinated
DAVE GROAL IS THE NICEST ROCKER EVER ALL MY FELLOW HECKIN UPVOOTIN REDDITORS AGREE HE IS SUCH A GOOD GUY REMEMBER TO KEEP UP WITH YOUR PHIZER BOOSTER SCHEDULE AND RESIST EVIL ORANGE MAN TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS TOO RIP TYLER HOCKINGS!!!!
