Time Warner Cable Arena: FOO FIGHTERS 11/8 Time Warner Cable
FOO FIGHTERS IN CONCERT TONIGHT !
Tuesday November 08, 2011 At 7:00 PM
Having just wrapped up a sold out weekend at
Milton Keynes National Bowl in London where
they rocked the worlds of no less than 130,000
insanely appreciative fans, Foo Fighters have
confirmed the latest series of dates in their
forthcoming U.S. arena tour. FOO FIGHTERS
will play Time Warner Cable Arena in Charlotte
on November 8. Special guests will be Social Distortion and The Joy Formidable.
The ever-expanding tour rides the relentless momentum of Foo Fighters’ recently released seventh album Wasting Light, certified gold less than two months after debuting at #1 in a dozen countries. Wasting Light has also generated arguably the best critical notices of the band’s 16-year career. The newly released Foo Fighters: Back & Forth documentary, directed by Oscar winner James Moll, has done likewise, with a just-out four-star ROLLING STONE review raving “a classic rockumentary arc… Dave Grohl has lived an extraordinarily cinematic life.”
Grohl, Taylor Hawkins, Nate Mendel, Chris Shiflett and Pat Smear will be playing hits spanning the Foo Fighters’ catalogue of multi-platinum arena anthems, including new staples such as the 13-week Modern Rock #1 “Rope” and “Walk,” the band’s latest single and subject of the brilliant Sam Jones-directed parody of the classic crime drama Falling Down. Already a viral sensation, the “Walk” clip has been viewed more than a million times since its June 2 premiere.
Time Warner Cable Arena, home of the Charlotte Bobcats, the Charlotte Checkers and the premier destination for top-rated concerts and events. Providing the community with the ultimate in sports and entertainment, Time Warner Cable Arena features multiple seating options, unique locations for eating and socializing and the largest indoor scoreboard in the country.
Roger Waters, the co-founder and principal songwriter of the archetypal progressive band Pink Floyd, has announced the return of the historic production of “The Wall” to North America in 2012. His aural and visual masterpiece of alienation and transformation will be performed in-its-entirety featuring a full band and state-of-the-art production. “The Wall” live has played more than 120 shows around the world for more than 1.6 million fans making it one of the most successful tours of 2010 and 2011.
