The series of concerts will take place across the Bud Light Hotel in New York where there will be a cruise ship docked on the Hudson River.

The band may possibly play some of their new songs during this show as they are reported to be rehearsing and recording new songs for their new album.

"It's badass. We're doing something that nobody knows about, it's f---ing rad. We begin recording soon, but we're doing it in a way that no one's done before and we're writing the album in a way that I don't think has been done before," Grohl said during his interview with Rolling Stones a few weeks back. "We actually just started making a new Foo Fighters record within the last few weeks. We've started rehearsing."

The announcement of the band to be recording and practicing new stuff signaled the band to end their hiatus.

"It was a very short hiatus," Foo Fighters guitarist Chris Shiflett said. "We're going to start recording the new Foo Fighter record at the beginning of next year."
