Things took a turn for the serious for the Foo Fighters this weekend with the band postponing a handful of their U.S. tour dates.

On Saturday (October 21), the Foos postponed their show in Lexington, Ky. and announced a rescheduled date of May 1 due to a “family emergency.”

The band then went on to postpone their October 23 Nashville show and their October 24 Memphis show. (Memphis has already been rescheduled for May 3, with the Nashville date still pending.)

Considering how Dave Grohl once fell off stage, broke his leg and still returned to finish a show, whatever the family emergency is must be very serious for the band to postpone shows. Whatever is going on, we send our well-wishes and thoughts to the entire Foos camp and hope they return to the road very soon.
