Over the last week, the Foo Fighters played two small shows in California to introduce new drummer Ilan Rubin. Now Dave Grohl has shared a jokey AI video that teases a tour.

“Hey, everyone. It’s been a while but I’m happy to announce that Foo Fighters are coming back to bring you that 100 per cent real, raw, human element of rock and roll.’

AI Nate Mendel then says: “After 30 years of being a band, we’ve realised that the most important thing to us is that what you see and hear coming from our speakers is the genuine passion of the six living, breathing human beings on stage.”

Good one, guys
