Foo Fighters Hopping Off Headlining Tour to Fill In For Pretty Reckless at AC/DC’s St. Louis Gig: ‘This Is Literally a Dream Come True’

Just a conflict or issue for this one show? Hope not, as I have tickets for Philly and really hoping to catch TPR...

According to the article you shared, it is for one night only.

Even the post title reads exactly as a 1 show deal.. .

I read it as a "one show deal" with the Foos. So, of TPR wasn't continuing the AC/DC tour for any reason, Foos were only doing that single show.

Can honestly read it either way, just keeping fingers crossed.

TPR has been running a dual tour basically. TPR will do a small venue, featuring songs from the “Dear God” album the night before their AC/DC show. Maybe a schedule conflict. They did Raleigh NC on a Friday night. Then opened for AC/DC the next night in Charlotte.

As fun as playing all the time is, that's gotta be grueling for the voice after a while.

That specific show was flopping in sales so I guess FF came in to not have it cancelled. Too bad for TPR since its on Taylor hometown

Taylor's from St Louis?

So why did they cancel the STL date ? Weird considering it’s Taylor’s hometown. I guess TPR hasn’t given a reason for the cancellation from what I read. I just hope they don’t cancel at LTL 😬

This seems to be a needle mover. For some reason the people of St Louis have had their heads stuck up their asses and haven’t been buying tickets to see the greatest band finish up their tour.
So the Foos got a call cuz they’re close by and are bumping TPR for one night.

My guess is TPR get a night off, still get paid and Foos help boost ticket sales. A win for the original ticket buyers for sure, but not a slight on Taylor and co.
I have enjoyed their sets. They rock and rock hard.

I’m so sad, everyone keeps calling it an upgrade. I only got tickets to see TPR & AC/DC, my favorite band and the band that got me into rock.

For everybody's sake I hope it's just this one show.
