Foo Fighters, Chappell Roan Head South For Corona Capital
In what will be one of their first shows with an as-yet-unidentified new drummer, Foo Fighters have signed on as a headliner for the Corona Capital festival, which will be held Nov. 14-16 at Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez in Mexico City. Chappell Roan and Linkin Park will anchor the other two nights.
As previously reported, the Foos abruptly fired Josh Freese last month after less than two years in the band, and his replacement has yet to be named. Beyond Corona Capital, the Dave Grohl-led group’s schedule also includes four other fall shows in Asia, beginning Oct. 2 in Jakarta.
