Welsh band thought Foo Fighters support slot was a 'scam' and fan response has been 'insane'

Two Welsh bands, CHROMA and Himalayas, who have been selected by the Foo Fighters to open their UK shows next year, have spoken about their excitement and the 'insane' response to the brilliant news they had landed support slots for quite possibly one of the world's biggest bands. Last week, the American rock band announced that they would be bringing their Everything or Nothing at All tour to the UK in the summer of 2024.

The band will be touring various UK locations such as London, Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow and Cardiff - the latter of which will see them return to Wales for the first time in almost two decades. Amid the presale ticket on Wednesday, June 27, the band also announced who would be opening their gigs during the tour, which included two Welsh bands.

At the Emirates Old Trafford in Manchester, CHROMA will be performing on June 15, 2024. Meanwhile, the Himalayas band will be performing on home turf here in Wales ahead of the Foo Fighters highly anticipated gig at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on June 25.
