The greatest band on earth, touring Australia as a support band

I first heard about this tour back in February. I've been sitting on it a while, waiting for confirmation, etc, but I can now tell you that the greatest band on earth, Tenacious D, is heading to Australia. Amazing! Yes!

However, they're hitching their tour on a much larger wagon, who they once helped film a music video with:

Yep. That's right. It's the Foo Fighters, supported by Tenacious D. December 10th, at Metricon Stadium on the Gold Coast (that's the old Carrara Stadium, just in case you were wondering). Foo Fighters did a quick stop in Brisbane at the start of the year for a flood fundraiser, and by all accounts, they are back on top of their game as one of the best modern rock bands.

I've never seen them, so I guess this may be the time to do it. Especially since there's more bands to be announced and the major rumour is (from someone in the know who's right about 90% of the time) its the Strokes.
