Following months of speculation, Foo Fighters have finally confirmed details of their highly-anticipated eighth studio album. The as-yet-untitled record, serving as the follow-up to 2011's excellent Wasting Light, will arrive in the fall through Roswell/RCA Records.
The album’s release will coincide with the airing of Dave Grohl’s new HBO TV series, which was first reported yesterday. According to a press release, the series will document Foo Fighters’ sessions in eight different cities — Chicago, Austin, Nashville, Los Angeles, Seattle, New Orleans, Washington, DC and New York — as they record the album in various legendary studios.
The press release explains: “One song was recorded in each city, every song featuring local legends sitting in, and every lyric written in an unprecedented experimental style: Dave held off on putting down words until the last day of each session, so as to be inspired by the experiences, interviews and personalities that became part of the process.
“Each episode delves into the singular regional identity of each city-how each region shaped these musicians in their formative years, and in turn the impact those people had on the cultural fabric of their hometowns-ultimately celebrating their common bond: Every artist that appears in the show, regardless of genre or locale, started as an average kid with the universal dreams of making music and making it big.”

Met the future wife at a for show in 2011. Super pumped. One of the best shows I've seen. 3 hours of balls out rocking

Yup. I was at their show at the House of Blues in New Orleans and it was, by far, the best show I've ever experienced.

The multi-city odyssey of recording sessions and surprise shows is already underway. On May 5, the Foo Fighters -- who normally fill arenas -- played a surprise, two-hour show at the 9:30 Club in Grohl's hometown of Washington D.C. The show was billed as a birthday celebration for Big Tony Fisher, the bassist of go-go band Trouble Funk. Which it was -- but with a bonus Foo Fighters show to boot.
Dave's in town now. I wonder if they have a surprise show set up somewhere this weekend.

Any word on possible locations for the secret show?

i've got nothing and the internet is telling me nothing.

I think it's at Preservation Hall. But I can't figure out what time it will be or how to get in
Posted on 5/17/14 at 4:45 pm to quail man
God I hope it's equally as great as all their other stuff.

So...is this real life , or a joke? I'm down to go see them in a small venue. Details please!
Posted on 5/17/14 at 5:20 pm to quail man
Howlin Wolf has a "private event" set for tonight. Not saying that is it but Tips, OEJ, etc all have other unrelated artists playing tonight.

Preservation Hall also is for a "private event" and Grohl was already pictured there today
Posted on 5/17/14 at 5:37 pm to Jordanreid2000
Jeez...I'm seriously contemplating throwing on some jeans, grabbing the wife, hopping in the car and driving to New Orleans. IIRC, the last time FF played a secret/surprise show in New Orleans (about seven or eight years ago), they played at the Howlin Wolf. I thought that'd be the "too obvious" location, but, now...damn...could it be that easy? This is driving me crazy...
ETA: Preservation Hall, too, eh? Dammit!

i'm asking around, trying to figure it out. i don't even live in NOLA right now, and i'm excited
Posted on 5/17/14 at 5:53 pm to quail man
it's definitely Preservation Hall
Posted on 5/17/14 at 5:56 pm to quail man
If you hear about a time or anything let us know. I might just go over there in a little bit to try and see what's up
Posted on 5/17/14 at 5:58 pm to FultonReed
i'd probably get out there ASAP, TBH. No word on time, but i'd imagine they will open the doors around 8.
eta: whoever goes, i expect pics and a solid recap
