FOO FIGHTERS will be going on a hiatus. Dave Grohl revealed: “don’t know when we’re gonna do it again.” The FOOs played their final show at Citizen Festival in Central Park in New York City on September 29, 2012.
He commented:
“Without making a big deal out of it, we don’t have any shows after this. This is it, man. Honestly, I don’t know when we’re gonna do it again… and this is the perfect place to do it.”
“I don’t know when, but we’ll see you again.”

A few days later Dave added:
I was serious. I’m not sure when the Foo Fighters are going to play again. It feels strange to say that, but it’s a good thing for all of us to go away for a while. It’s one of the reasons we’re still here. Make sense? I never want to NOT be in this band. So, sometimes it’s good to just… put it back in the garage for a while. No gold watches or vacations just yet… I’ll be focusing all of my energy on finishing up my Sound City documentary film and album for worldwide release in the very near future. A year in the making, it could be the biggest, most important project I’ve ever worked on. Get ready… it’s coming.
