This feels like a good way to go forward. Honour the guy with a couple of massive shows full of his mates, and give the band a chance to feel out playing without him free of the pressure to announce a tour.

But Dave's gonna have to sing Everlong - I'm guessing that's going to be really hard.

As for lineup, I'm going to guess the remaining Foos will be onstage all night, rotating through a bunch of drummers and singers (to allow DG to get on the kit a little). I'm assuming Chad Smith, Matt Cameron*, Roger Taylor, Paul McCartney, Alanis, Perry Farrell, maybe even a Zep or two one last time..?

*OMG Matt Cameron could join the Foos and that would be amazing...

Interesting that it's in the UK. Or are there going to be a series of shows in different countries?

Seems like the right thing to do, and enough time passed to get through a show, although I'm sure it'll be a struggle.

Will try and get tix for sure.

I can only imagine the shitshow that will be the fight for tickets from Ticketmaster. Of which I will be very much part of the problem!

For a huge Queen fan, a tribute at Wembley is a fitting idea indeed.

Will they get Percy to mess up Innuendo again, for full authenticity?

Rabs · June 2022

Yeah I think its cos the Wembley gig that they did 2008 was a huge deal for them and getting Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones to play.. Dave says as much in that documentary Back and Forth...

There's been a lot of talk about it recently, but it doesn't seem like there are any concrete plans. I guess ultimately it'll mainly be Alex's decision.

Ticket sites now saying there will be presale for previous show ticket holders.

No idea how that will work but as a previous owner of 4 tickets to Villa Park it might give me a tiny slight chance.

I got two in the gods - literally 3 rows from the roof, but a pretty good view. I kept trying for better seats but in the time I selected and tried to add them they'd gone. General sale is tomorrow @ 0900 for those that are interested

Vintage-T · June 2022

dare I ask how much each ticket was?

Can't work out what the past bookers code means....is that if you had a ticket for a foo's show that was cancelled? I've previously booked Foo's shows but the last one was a few years ago, so guessing I don't qualify.

If on the sneaky chance anyone does have a code that won't be using it, please PM me

Standard tickets were £93 I think, but cheaper tickets around £75 were available.
