The Foo Fighters are celebrating 25 years with a new tour that will take them back to some of the towns on their first tour in 1995.

Tickets will range from $63-103 and will go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday, Feb. 21, at LiveNation.com.

In a press release, the band hinted at the possibility of additional shows in much smaller venues — similar to the ones it played in 1995: “[A]side from many of those clubs on that 1995 trek having since ceased to exist, squeezing a 2020 FF show into the few that are still around would just be too insane … or would it? Stay tuned for the answer to that question.”
