Phoenix, AZ (November 30, 2007) - After selling a staggering 163,000 tickets in 24 hours for their June 6 & 7 stand at London’s Wembley Stadium, Foo Fighters have set their sights on America. The band has confirmed the bulk of their first American tour in support of their new album Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace. This will be the band’s biggest American tour to date. As on their warm up dates earlier this fall, core Foo Fighters Dave Grohl, Nate Mendel, Taylor Hawkins and Chris Shiflett will be joined by Pat Smear on guitar, Rami Jaffee on keyboards, Drew Hester on percussion, and Jessy Greene on strings. The tour will make a stop to perform at Jobing.com Arena on Sunday, March 2. The show will begin at 7:30 pm with a soon to be announced special guest.

Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace is Foo Fighters’ sixth studio album and has already proven itself a worthy addition to the band’s discography, as songs like “The Pretender” and new single “Long Road To Ruin” are holding their own every night alongside known barnburners like “My Hero” and “All My Life”. As Entertainment Weekly said of the new album, “the band has taken everything it’s always done best… and brought it to the next level.”
