In May, Foo Fighters fired their drummer Josh Freese. Shortly after, they released a Minor Threat cover and an original song called “Today’s Song.” They hired Nine Inch Nails’ Ilan Rubin and then did a bunch of surprise shows at small venues in September. In October, they joined Bandcamp with a live EP of performances from those gigs, with proceeds going to charity. Now, they’re sharing a new track called “Asking For A Friend” and announcing a North American stadium tour with Queens Of The Stone Age, Mannequin Pussy, and Gouge Away (who were featured on the mixtapes Foos had at the pop-up shows).
