Foo Fighters: TAKE COVER TOUR 2026

Saturday, August 8 • 5:30 PM

Get ready to duck and roll as Foo Fighters are set to detonate their epic TAKE COVER TOUR 2026. This isn't just your typical nostalgic stroll down the alt-rock memory lane. No, the ever-evolving Foo Fighters are re-engineering their brawny anthems into an explosive set that promises to be more than just a sonic boom.

Dave Grohl and Co. have always thrived on the unexpected, from their impromptu pop-up gigs to legendary drum battles. And let's not forget their infectious ability to wrap searing rock and roll around a pulsating, heart-on-sleeve emotional core, all while making it seem as breezy as a Cobain smirk. So, expect nothing less than a tour de force that shatters the comfort zone, leaving you picking pieces of your blown mind from the depths of your soul.

Brace yourself—the Foo is about to hit the fan. And for those still clinging onto their ill-conceived notion of cool—don't say we didn't warn you.

With their latest opus, The Golden Casket, Isaac Brock and co. delve into the deepest recesses of existential angst and digital decay, all while delivering hooks that’ll haunt you longer than that last dream you can't quite remember. Expect an evening where each track mutates on stage, puncturing the veil between hope and despair, leaving you questioning your own psychic landscape. And let’s not forget Califone, the avant-folk alchemists who weave magic out of auditory shadows, setting the perfect prelude for the night.

Stolen Goods, Bridj Williams, Boomwagon

Stolen Goods, Bridj Williams, Boomwagon

Thursday, August 13 • 7:30 PM

Hold onto your thrifted berets and lace-up boots because this Saturday night promises to be a sonic pilgrimage. Stolen Goods are headlining with their genre-bending fusion of post-punk and art-rock, a combo that feels like Joy Division and Talking Heads had a love child raised on Zoloft and zines. Bridj Williams is dropping in with their ethereal indie-pop vibes that hit harder than an unexpected Tame Impala B-side, while Boomwagon is set to ignite the night with explosive garage rock energy that even Jack White wishes he’d penned. It's all going down in the grittiest, most graffiti-adorned corner of the city, where the walls sweat history and the PBR flows like nectar. Miss it, and risk being the only one not recounting stories of epic crowd surfs and ear-tingling riffs come Monday.
