Foo Fighters have announced a couple of tiny, last-minute gigs on the U.S. East Coast.

Having done the same thing with a trio of small shows in Ireland and England in February to celebrate the announcement of their new album Your Favorite Toy, the rock legends will now appear in New York City tonight (April 30) at the 1,200-capacity Irving Plaza, and then again on Saturday, May 2 at Sayreville, New Jersey’s 2,500-capacity Starland Ballroom.

Tickets are priced at just $30, and are only available in person at the respective venues from April 30 at 10am local time.

In our 4/5 review of Your Favorite Toy, we said that, “Bands of a certain vintage often talk about wanting to make a record that sounds like a band simply playing in a room. Most of them suck. The authors have changed so much within themselves that stripping back just reveals what’s no longer there. Here, it’s the opposite, and Foo Fighters like this feel fresh, energised and essential.”
