Middle Tennessee Foo Fighters fans let out a collective "Aww, bummer bro!" when news came along over the weekend that Dave Grohl & Co. would be postponing their Oct. 23 show at Bridgestone Arena. Details were scant in a statement — a "family emergency" was the reason given.

Well, as promised, the West Coast monsters of radio-friendly post-grunge have announced a makeup date: Foo Fighters have rescheduled their show at Bridgestone Arena for Friday, May 4. Why, that's just six-and-a-half months. Start your countdown clocks!

According to a release: "All previously purchased tickets will be honored at the May 4 reschedule date. If you are unable to attend the new date, refunds are available at points of purchase." If you have any questions, get in touch with the folks at Bridgestone Arena box office — their number is 615-770-2040.

Need a Foos fix to tide you over until May? Read The Spin's recaps from their shows at the Ryman in 2014 and Bridgestone in 2015 — or head to Exit/In tonight, where you just might get a little Foo cameo.
