The Foo Fighters have been forced to rearrange two of their North American shows after frontman Dave Grohl lost his voice during the opening night in Seattle last week.
‘That’s the last time I ever make out with Bono’, Grohl joked in a statement, referencing the U2 frontman’s own vocal problems which prematurely ended a gig at the Berlin Mercedes-Benz Arena on the same night.
This week’s scheduled concerts in Edmonton and Calgary will now take place after what would have been the end of the tour in St. Paul, MN; proceedings are hoped to resume in Vancouver on September 8th.
