The Foo Fighters have had to deny rumours that they are locking the door on the band and throwing away the key.

Rumours starting swirling concerning a split when lead singer Dave Grohl made a comment during a performance at a music festival in New York recently.

The frontman told the crowd: “This is it, man. We don’t have any after this.” But now he has come out to clarify what exactly he meant by the statement.

Lead singer Dave Grohl cleared up the confusion caused by his statement.

He said: “There were times when I didn’t think the band would survive. There were times when I wanted to give up.

“But… I can’t give up this band. And I never will. Because it’s not just a band to me. It’s my life. It’s my family. It’s my world.”

However, unfortunately for fans, the band is taking a short hiatus from the studio.

Grohl added: “I’m not sure when the Foo Fighters are going to play again… but it’s a good thing for all of us to go away for a while.”

That’s alright Dave but just don’t take too long!
