After teasing it on social media last week, Foo Fighters have confirmed that the band will headline D.C. Jam on July 4th in Washington D.C. to mark the 25th anniversary of the release of the Foos' self-titled debut on that date in 1995.
The all-day all-night celebration will take place at FedExField in the nation's capital and feature performances from country star Chris Stapleton, singer/songwriter/producer Pharrell Williams, legendary all-female band The Go-Gos, Seattle's Band Of Horses and other acts in addition to the headliners.
Foo Fighters main man Dave Grohl told us a while back why he likes big outdoor music events: “These kind of shows are so much fun, when you open up with a song like 'All My Life' and they hear the (makes guitar sound), the place just kind of goes off. And it's the best feeling in the world to stand there on stage and watch it happen.”
D.C. Jam will feature side attractions including a BBQ Competition, a Tailgate Party, rides, games and more to be added and announced as the date nears.
A fan presale is underway now, with sales to the general public beginning Friday (March 6th) at 10:00 a.m. ET.
