    Looks like Foo Fighters are heading back too Europe in the summer of 2018 and will play 3 gigs in the UK. Will there be an irish date and what would be the best venue

    Id be amazed if we dont get a date , Would like to see them in the Aviva imo

    Seems to be strong rumours of an Irish date on June 16th. Wish they would just do a blanket release of the tour. They seem to be following the model they used last year of drip feeding gigs over a number of weeks.

    Yeah it's a bit frustrating when bands drip dates. Hopefully an Irish date will be announced by the time the UK dates go on sale but I'm leaning more towards Manchester as the Etihad blows away any irish venue imo

    The same day as The National, I hope not :( If I knew this I would have got National tickets for the 15th :(

    At least they are doing 2 shows . If they do pick the 16th in the Aviva it will help with ticket sales due to being a weekend.

    So id say they will be in Europe all of June before heading back in July for the 2nd leg of the American Tour unless they do Rock Werchter which is at the start of July and then back to America

    They will hardly play download or IOW etc cause they announced the UK Dates already???

    Going too Manchester but I hope they play an Irish show for all the fans here. There seems to be a thread now where lots of acts skip Ireland for Logistic reasons etc

    I cant see them skipping Ireland since they have played here on pretty much every tour (i know they skipped us when they did arena shows and around the wembley gigs )

    No reason why not tbf no Midlands dates and other shows sold out.

    Download are announcing first acts after next week supposedly perhaps isn't a coincidence Metallica finish UK dates then either.
