Unsure if this makes Fontaines D.C. out or likely for us?

Considering Bill Graham is an APE venue and the precedent is there: the Strokes played Bill Graham in April then headlined OSL in August.

I’d say out. Idk why they would come back to the US between these for one show especially if they are already playing SF

If APE learned anything from booking Geese, and Turnstile this past year, they’ll book Fontaines this year

Rumor was The Strokes stepped in for someone, but I don’t think it was ever confirmed. Seems like Fontaines would be possible though.

But the strokes headlined basically all the major us festivals. That rumor seems fishy.

Their only other headlining fest was Bonnaroo tho.

They subbed at Coachella, and didn’t play Lolla, Gov Ball, Bottlerock or ACL.

Westside Cowboy's debut album is so fuckin' good, I'm itching for them to tour America with it!
