Rock band, The Foo Fighters, are taking an indefinite hiatus!

Lead Singer, Dave Grohl, of The Foo Fighters has announced that the band will be on an indefinite hiatus, in a letter published to his fans.

Hey everyone...

Dave here. Just wanted to write and thank you all again from the bottom of my heart for another incredible year. (Our 18th, to be exact!) We truly never could have done any of this without you...

Never in my wildest dreams did I think Foo Fighters would make it this far. I never thought we COULD make it this far, to be honest. There were times when I didn't think the band would survive. There were times when I wanted to give up. But... I can't give up this band. And I never will. Because it's not just a band to me. It's my life. It's my family. It's my world.

Yes... 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...

But, 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.

Me, Taylor, Nate, Pat, Chris, and Rami... I'm sure we'll all see you out there... somewhere...

Thank you, thank you, thank you...

Dave
Grohl released this letter following a performance over the weekend where he said, "
"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." That remark fueled suspicions within the band's fan base.

During the Foo Fighters impressive 18 years in the business they have produced 7 albums and scored 10 Grammy's. They have been a band full of high energy and amazing stage presence, excellent sounds, and known for being great to their fans.

We wish Dave, Taylor, Nate, Pat, Chris, and Rami all the best.

There may be no new music from them on the horizon, but the sounds of The Foo Fighters will live on forever!
