'FOO FIGHTERS' GIG SPARKS CHAOS!

Rumours of a surprise FOO FIGHTERS gig at a U.K. festival last weekend (24Aug08) sparked a riot which resulted in an unprovoked attack on a upcoming band. Thousands of fans descended on a tiny stage at the Reading festival amidst reports the Foo Fighters were playing a secret show. The act appearing was billed as The FF'ers - which was assumed to be a pseudonym for Dave Grohl's band.

But it turned out to be a little known British punk band, and the 3,000 strong crowd were not impressed. The band was attacked with bottles by angry fans and had to abandon their set. The next band on, Underground Railroad, received similar treatment with fans hurling mud, bottles and shoes at them. The Parisian trio threw the missiles back into the crowd and were pulled offstage by security soon afterwards.

That was some sorry ass foo fighting up there!
