** SATURDAY 22ND NOVEMBER **

FU Fighters are a long established and accomplished tribute band based in the UK who perform and incredibly authentic tribute to the American rock legends, Foo Fighters.

Having played hundreds of gigs and festivals all over the UK and beyond over several years, this live stage show is now a true recreation of the real deal. The only Foo fighters tribute to have all that actual instruments that are used by the Foo Fighters, including the 2 Gibson DG335 guitars that Dave uses in his live shows. After huge personal investment by the band members into all the genuine instruments used by the Foo Fighters and utilising their vast collective experience these boys put on one off of a show that is not to be missed!

The show is 100% live with no backing tracks, there’s no faking it here!

The coming together of FU Fighters and Gaz Grohl from a former leading tribute band is 2020 has surly created the best band possible. The band are a hard working, professional crew who are all incredibly easy to work with. The feedback and crowds reactions all speaks volumes and once you see and hear FU Fighters, you’ll soon realise they are the only Foo Fighters tribute to choose.

Get out here, put your dancin’ shoes on and go see FU Fighters!
