Over A Month After The Original Date
After Foo Fighters postponed their July 17 show at The Forum in Los Angeles, it has now been moved to August 26. Tickets are automatically valid for the new date. They had to call off the original concert after a member of their team tested positive for coronavirus.
“Despite having made every effort to follow CDC Covid protocols and local laws, there has been a confirmed Covid-19 case within the FOO FIGHTERS organization,” the band said in a statement released in July 14. “Out of an abundance of caution and concern for the safety of the band, crew and most of all the fans, Saturdays show at the Los Angeles Forum is being postponed to a later date.”
Their Forum gig was supposed to be the first full-capacity show at the historic venue. Foo Fighters previously reopened Madison Square Garden with a successful sold-out concert on June 20. Prior to that, they also played in front of a fully-vaccinated crowd at the Canyon Club in Agoura Hills, California.
Foo Fighters are still promoting their latest album, “Medicine at Midnight”, released on February 5 via Roswell Records/RCA Records. The nine-track LP took the top spot on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart.
