When making the new album Sonic Highways, rock torchbearers Foo Fighters hit up studios all over the U.S. (and even filmed the proceedings). Now, they're preparing to hit the highways again, this time for a massive North American tour.
The outing is still a ways off, since the outing will take up all of next summer. They'll be playing arenas and amphitheatres around the continent, including Canadian stops in Toronto, Edmonton, Calgary, and Vancouver. Royal Blood will open the first three of Canadian those dates.
Before the North American tour kicks off, the Foos will be playing lots of international dates, with legs in South Africa, South America, Australia and Europe. The itinerary for the overseas shows can be seen here, while the North American calendar is below.
UPDATE: The band have added a second Toronto show on July 8.
