I have to lol this source. One would think they would announce a drummer before confirming gigs, but stranger things...

Just bung a Roland TR-808 on the stool and call it good.

Im guessing they will announce the new drummer along with the tour. I can see them playing SA in september yeah and announcing that in maybe march?

Japan is a long way to go to warm up your voice for US Tour.

I heard through the grapevine that our very own tree_ has been warming up on the drums for something big. Sources suggest the band's main criteria was that their new drummer be better than Chad Smith, so who knows.

Foo Fighters were still announcing shows without a drummer, if I remember correctly.

Also, shouldn't this be in the Live forum?
