Foo Fighters launch new round of North American dates

The Foo Fighters return to the road on Sunday (5/25) for the latest leg of their ongoing tour in support of last year's "One by One."

The group's current North American itinerary stretches into mid August, after which the band heads to Europe for a run on the summer festival circuit. Ticket on-sale and pre-sale information is posted at the band's official website.

The Foo Fighters have enlisted Chevelle and the Jealous Sound to open the May concert dates, and the Special Goodness and Pete Yorn to open a number of June shows. Specific details are available at the Foo Fighters' website.

It took Grohl and his bandmates--Taylor Hawkins (drums), Chris Shiflett (guitar) and Nate Mendel (bass)--only 12 days to record "One by One," which surfaced last October. The album spawned the single "All My Life," which earlier this year won the group a GRAMMY® award for Best Hard Rock Performance.

The group's latest single, "Times Like These," is sitting in the Top 10 on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks chart. An acoustic version of the song is streaming at the band's website.
