The American rock band formed by ex Nirvana drummer, Dave Grohl, the Foo Fighters written several hit songs since their formation in 1995, six months after the death of Kurt Cobain.  The name was inspired by the World War II term “foo fighter” which is in reference to mysterious aerial phenomena otherwise known as UFOs.

With a global following, Foo Fighter hits include, “This is a Call,” “Everlong,” “Learn to Fly,” “All my Life,” “Times Like These,” “Best of You,” “DOA,” “The Pretender” and “Long Road to Ruin.”  Three of the band’s six albums have received Grammy Awards for Best Rock Album and in addition to their studio albums, their work has also been included in movie soundtracks such as “The One” featured on Orange County (2002).

Located in Council Bluffs, Iowa, the Mid-American Center is across the Missouri River from Omaha, Nebraska.  The arena and convention center is the home of the Iowa Blackhawks of the American Professional Footbal league and the Omaha Lancers of the United States Hockey League (USHL).

The facility holds 9,000 for concerts and 6,700 for ice hockey and arena football.
