Foo Fighters are set to fill in for The Pretty Reckless as special guests of AC/DC for a one-night-only event in St. Louis on Tuesday, September 8th.
The concert at The Dome at America’s Center in St. Louis, Missouri, is part of AC/DC’s “PWR/UP World Tour,” which concludes with a show in Philadelphia on September 29th. The tour is in support of AC/DC’s 17th studio album PWR/UP, which arrived in 2020 and reached No. 1 in 21 countries.
A statement from AC/DC reads, “Foo Fighters are taking a special one-off detour from their Take Cover Global Stadium Tour to fill in for their friends The Pretty Reckless as special guests of AC/DC for one night only in St. Louis. The performance brings two generations of rock’s biggest live acts together for a one-night-only event, with the Foo Fighters opening for the band’s St. Louis tour stop.”
Talking about his love for AC/DC and how they helped shape his own music career, Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl said that AC/DC’s concert film Let There Be Rock introduced him to the raw, primal power of rock and roll performance for the first time.
“It’s safe to say that If it weren’t for this movie, this band, and their decades of timeless anthems, I surely would have approached my life in music from a different perspective,” Grohl said, adding, “My band Foo Fighters will share a stage with the gentlemen who are single handedly responsible for my determination to give every audience everything I have, every night. This is literally a dream come true. So…..if you want blood….you’ve got it. Let there be rock, St Louis. See you September 8th.”
