The rock singer continued, "I was driving on this country road, and there were like sheep, and it was a great day. And there were green rolling hills, and all I wanted to do was disappear. And as I was driving down this country road, I see a hitchhiker, and he had a Kurt Cobain T-shirt on."

"Music has always been the love of my life, It's helped me through some of my most difficult moments and when I saw the kid with the Kurt Cobain T-shirt I thought, 'Okay I have to keep going.' I have so much reverence and respect for the past but I need to have a future."

But Foo Fighters have not been without tragedy either. Beloved drummer Taylor Hawkins died in 2002, leaving a huge hole in the band that they tried initially to fill with Josh Freese, who played with the band until he was let go in July 2025, making room to bring in former Nine Inch Nails drummer Ilan Rubin, who made his drumming debut with the band on their latest album.

Foo Fighters will head out for a stadium tour that begins on Aug. 4, 2026 at Rogers Stadium in Toronto. The North American leg of the Take Cover tour consists of 12 tour dates featuring Queens of the Stone Age, Mannequin Pussy, and Gouge Away as opening acts and will end on Sep. 26, 2026, at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
