Foo Fighters Play As The Holy Shits In London

Foo Fighters were performing in London under the alias The Holy Shits this week.

The Friday night show at the 450-capacity Islington Assembly Hall gave fans a chance to hear 21 songs from their 20 year career but strangely nothing from the upcoming Foo Fighters album ‘Sonic Highways’.

‘Sonic Highways’, the eighth Foo Fighters album, will be released in November and coincide with the HBO series of the same name documenting the making of the record.

Foo Fighters, aka The Holy Shits, also performed this week at the 850 capacity House of vans under Waterloo Station in London and the 600 capacity Concorde 2 in Brighton.

Sammy Hagar has always had a reputation for surrounding himself with powerhouse players, but his upcoming live album, Sammy Hagar & The Best Of All Worlds Band – The Residency (out October 10, 2025 via Big Machine Rock), brings a distinctly Australian twist.

For Australian fans, the inclusion of Thistlethwayte in Hagar’s latest chapter is a striking reminder of how far the Sydney-born musician’s career has travelled.
