On Wednesday, April 12, Foo Fighters shared a cryptic message on social media that their fans understood to be an announcement of new music.
In a message that was so faded in color that you could barely see, the Instagram post read: “Are you thinking what I’m thinking?”
Fans flooded the comments section with excitement and among the first was Jack Black of Tenacious D who responded back with “I think so.”
Earlier this week, Foo Fighters announced several tour dates with headlining shows beginning in May and running through October.
Foo Fighters formed in 1994 by former Nirvana drummer and now lead vocalist Dave Grohl. Band members include Chris Shiftlett on guitar, bassist Nate Mendel, Rami Jaffee on keys and guitarist Pat Smear. Hawkins, who died one year ago this month, had been the band's drummer since 1997. A new drummer has not been announced.
