Foo Fighters' new drummer revealed after band member's firing
Foo Fighters have found their new drummer after the shock firing of Josh Freese. The switch up marks a new chapter in the Foo Fighters' ongoing evolution. He succeeds Freese, 52, who joined the iconic group in 2023, following the death of longtime drummer Taylor Hawkins in 2022. Freese's departure, quietly announced in May, left fans wondering who could possibly carry the torch and join the band comprised of Dave Grohl, Nate Mendel, Pat Smear, Chris Shiflett, and Rami Jaffee. Ilan Rubin, best known for his tenure with Nine Inch Nails and Angels & Airwaves, is stepping behind the kit for the legendary rock band, sources confirm to The Hollywood Reporter. Having joined Nine Inch Nails as their touring drummer in 2009 at just 21, Rubin became the youngest-ever inductee into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame when the band was honored in 2020. In addition to his longstanding work with Trent Reznor and co., Rubin also performs with Angels & Airwaves and has collaborated with film composer Danny Elfman. He is currently expecting his second child. It's not yet clear whether Rubin is joining the Foo Fighters as a permanent member or in a touring capacity. A source close to the matter says Rubin had committed to Nine Inch Nails through the end of 2025, but informed Reznor last week that he had 'accepted a job with another band.' Meanwhile, Freese is headed back to familiar territory as Nine Inch Nails confirmed his return as their live drummer — a role he held from 2005 to 2008 before stepping away. The band teased the news with a celebratory Instagram story featuring Freese and the caption: 'let's f***** go.' Nine Inch Nails is set to begin the North American leg of its Peel It Back arena tour on August 6 in Oakland, California. The group, which wrapped a sold-out European run earlier this summer, has also been tapped to compose the score for Tron: Ares – the first time Nine Inch Nails, rather than just Reznor and longtime collaborator Atticus Ross, will be credited on a film soundtrack. For Freese, the departure from Foo Fighters came as a surprise. In a May Instagram post, he said the band 'decided to go in a different direction with their drummer,' adding, 'I'm not angry — just a bit shocked and disappointed.' Later, Freese addressed the possible reasons for his firing on Instagram, listing ten hilarious causes. Among the imagined offenses? 'Once whistled 'My Hero' for a week solid on tour,' 'Never even once tried growing a beard,' and the confession that he could only name 'one Fugazi song.' (A cardinal sin, apparently, given Dave Grohl's well-documented reverence for the iconic D.C. punk band.) More Trending Frontman Dave Grohl publicly thanked Freese for his contributions in a fan letter earlier this month, writing that without 'the thunderous wizardry of Josh Freese, this story would be incomplete.' Rubin will make his debut with the Foo Fighters when the band kicks off their long-awaited international tour this fall, starting October 2 in Jakarta, Indonesia. Additional dates include Singapore, Tokyo, Osaka, and a stop in Mexico City on November 14. Got a story?

Serie A side accidentally include fan's VERY X-rated tattoo in official kit launch shot on London housing estate
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SERIE A side Genoa had a nightmare when released their new away kit without noticing one of the kit models' very explicit tattoo. The launch included a video filmed in London, as well as a series of promotional images featuring models posing in the new kit. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 The model can be seen sitting with a pint modelling the kit in a promotional image, but fans quickly noticed an x-rated tattoo on the man's left leg Credit: Instagram / @genoacfc 4 The launch video featured all things English as Genoa pointed back to their historic roots Credit: Instagram / @genoacfc Play Dream Team now!

The tattoo, spotted by keen-eyed fans on one of the models' left leg in one of the promotional images, appears to feature two people engaged in a sex act. The image was quickly deleted by the club when fans started talking about the unfortunate oversight. One account re-posted the image on X with the caption "Interesting leg tattoo, that", garnering over 30,000 likes. Another asked: "How did the media team not catch that?" The kit itself is predominantly white and red and is based on the St George's Cross and its historic symbolism with the club. The cross is a symbol of the city of Genoa, and appears both on the city's coat of arms and Genoa CFC's club badge. The launch video, filmed in London, celebrates the English roots of the side, which is the oldest football club in Italy. It was originally formed as a cricket and football club by English sailors in 1893. 4 Locations such as Spensley walk have a special significance to the Italian clubs. Credit: Instagram / @genoacfc 4 The full kit will feature a white sponsor across the middle of the red cross, as well as gold detailing on the collar, sleeves and badges Credit: Instagram / @genoacfc The video's narration reads: "In 1983, a bunch of English lads rocked up with a cricket bat and a football, changing the game forever. "Born by the port, shaped by the sea, carried by Genovese pride, they cross-walked straight onto the pitch." Fans can't believe their eyes as WWE legend the Undertaker unveils Serie A minnows' kit in 'greatest collab ever' The video heavily features the Kirby estate in Bermondsey, known as the 'most patriotic estate' in London for its prominent displays of the St. George's cross. Another location in the video is Hackney's Spensley walk, featured in honour of James Richardson Spensley, who championed the footballing division of the sports club in 1897, and is known as a founding father of football in Italy. The club are no strangers to kit launch shenanigans- they unveiled an all-black third kit in November last year through a launch video featuring WWE legend the Undertaker.

Plan a day out with your kids with the perfect Edinburgh Fringe Festival guide
Visiting the Edinburgh Fringe with kids can be tricky, but with some planning, it can be a fun experience for the whole family Navigating the Edinburgh Festival Fringe with children in tow can seem like a challenge, but with a little planning, it can be a memorable experience for the whole family. As thousands prepare to descend on the capital for the world's largest arts festival, many parents are already weighing up how to juggle shows, food and sightseeing without anyone getting overwhelmed. Here's a guide to help families make the most of their Fringe visit, Edinburgh Live reports. Where to Eat Finding somewhere to refuel can be one of the trickiest parts of the Fringe, especially with hungry kids and crowded venues. While the city centre eateries tend to get packed, there are quieter options if you're willing to take a short stroll. The food trucks at George Square offer a variety of meals on the go, and nearby Meadows Park is the perfect spot for a peaceful break. Holyrood Park also offers open space for a picnic, while those venturing slightly further afield can find calm at Inverleith Park. Stockbridge, a short walk from there, is home to relaxed dining options like Civerinos and Café Andaluz. For indoor dining, Loudons near the Canongate serves family-friendly brunch and lunch in a bright, spacious setting. The Scran and Scallie in Stockbridge has a well-reviewed lunch menu and even a children's playroom, ideal for giving parents a much-needed breather. In Haymarket, Pomo Pizzeria delivers classic Italian dishes with plenty of kid-friendly pizza options. Check out the map below for the quiet spots in the city. Choosing Shows With thousands of performances on offer, choosing what to see can feel overwhelming. But part of the magic of the Fringe is taking a chance, not every show will be a hit, and that's all part of the experience. Children should be given the chance to pick a few shows themselves. Most performances run under an hour, which keeps things manageable even if a particular act doesn't capture everyone's attention. And families shouldn't feel confined to purely children's shows, many family-friendly productions are suitable for all ages. The Circus Hub on the Meadows is always a safe bet for families, offering a mix of acrobatics, comedy and spectacle. Other recommended picks this year include Monsterrrr! with Trygve Wakenshaw at Assembly George Square, You're an Instrument! at Pleasance Courtyard, and The Unlikely Friendship of Feather Boy and Tentacle Girl at Assembly Roxy. It's best to plan for two to three shows in one day, leaving plenty of time for breaks and travel between venues. Many shows offer family ticket options, which can be found on the Fringe's official website. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Getting Around Travelling between venues can take longer than expected, especially with little legs to consider. Parents are advised to avoid booking shows back-to-back and to check venue names carefully, as several locations have similar titles but are miles apart. Fringe venues can be spread across the city, so factor in time for toilets, snacks, and the occasional detour. A venue map is available on the official Fringe website to help plan efficient routes. Sightseeing with the Family For first-time visitors, sightseeing can add another layer to the experience, but be warned, popular attractions fill up fast and the crowds can be dense. If families are planning to visit places like Camera Obscura or Dynamic Earth, it's best to book in advance and allow extra time to get there. These spots can provide a fun break between shows and give children a taste of Edinburgh beyond the stage.
