As a result of the scandal surrounding Dave Grohl’s affair, Foo Fighters have decided to cancel their next festival show

The performance that Foo Fighters were scheduled to give at the Soundside Music Festival this coming weekend has been canceled. Given that Dave Grohl had addressed his newborn daughter earlier this month, the event would have been the first time the band had performed since then.

Beginning on September 28 and continuing through September 29, the festival will take place at the Hartford HealthCare Amphitheater in Bridgeport, Connecticut. In the beginning, Foo Fighters were supposed to be the headliners on Sunday night. It has been decided to replace them with Jack White and Greta Van Fleet, who have been added to the lineup.

A reason for the cancellation was not provided by Foo Fighters. In a brief message that was shared on social media, Foo Fighters announced that they will no longer be performing at the Soundside Music Festival that will take place this next weekend. If you would like additional information, please visit the festival’s website. Since Grohl announced earlier in September that he had given birth to his daughter outside of his marriage, the event was scheduled to be their first appearance together since that time.

“Just recently, I discovered that I am the father of a brand new baby girl who was born outside of my marriage. I intend to be a father that is both kind and supportive to her,” the singer stated in her letter. My wife and my children are very important to me, and I am doing all in my power to win back their trust and earn their forgiveness on their behalf. We would like to express our appreciation for your thoughtfulness toward all of the children that are engaged as we go forward together.

Despite the fact that the announcement was made in the midst of the scandal surrounding the affair, there is no indication that the cancellation is related to this. On August 18, 2024, Foo Fighters made their final stop on their North American tour, which was held in Seattle, Washington. At the moment, their website does not have any performances that are scheduled for 2024 or beyond.
