Foo Fighters Get F**ked Up In Australia

By Andrew Tijs
Thu, 08 Sep 2011 15:16:57 +1000

The Foos have added another band to their Australian stadium tour – Canadian art-punks F**ked Up.

Foo Fighters are already bringing joker buddies Tenacious D along for their mammoth stadium run across Australia in November and December. And they keep it creative by adding the revered Canadian hardcore experimentalists.

Who knows what Foo Fighter fans will make of Fucked Up, a multi-instrumental art band fronted by the screeching hardcore vocals of man-about-town Damien ‘Pink Eyes’ Abraham, who just released a critically-acclaimed rock opera album David Comes To Life.

No matter, because the Foo Fighters are endorsing them. Could be quite an interesting experiment.

Tickets are on sale now.

Foo Fighters, Tenacious D and Fucked Up
Monday 28 November - NIB Stadium, Perth
Friday 2 December - AAMI Park, Melbourne
Saturday 3 December - AAMI Park, Melbourne
Monday 5 December - Adelaide Oval, Adelaide
Thursday 8 December - Football Stadium, Sydney
Saturday 10 December - Metricon Stadium, Gold Coast
Tuesday 13 December - Western Springs Stadium, Auckland
