SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT! Alright, it's time we looked behind the curtain and told you a little secret. You might have heard of the legendary 80s metal band, Herr Metal, who has been playing all over the world lately. Well, what you may NOT know is that Dr. FU *is* Herr Metal. Yes, that's right, you heard us. We've been leading secret double-lives this past year, and now it's out in the open. Curious to know more about Herr Metal? Check out the website here. Want to know when Dr. FU is doing a gig as Herr Metal? Well, good thing you asked, because we've been asked to play Celebrate Fairfax this year and we'll be doing it as Herr Metal. Even better news, we're playing right atfer Third Eye Blind! Mark your calendars for Friday, June 10. Herr Metal takes the stage at 9:45pm and play until 11:15pm. Rock it!

Think about it: Party. FU. Rock. Sweet Caroline's. How can you miss it?

10 April, 2011 - FU's return to Ri-Ra was, well, let's just say it was awesome.

18 March, 2011 - FU wrapped up March Madness with an awesome St. Patrick's Day show at Ri-Ra last night. Insanity, mayhem, whatever you want to call it, the FU had it in spades. Photos can be found here. We're back at Ri-Ra in early April and then have a double-header on the 15th...Nationals Park and then Clarendon Ballroom.

13 March, 2011 - Another Shamrockfest is in the books and what a show it was. Thanks to all of the FU Army who showed up en masse to witness a truly great rock show. Photos should be here or here, and we'll see you at RiRa on Thursday night for more St. Patrick's Day madness!

1 March, 2011 - FU's return to Clarendon did not disappoint. The Grill was packed all night and we had one of our best crowds there in recent memory. What an aweseome show! FU returns in a few weeks for Shamrockfest 2011, but in the meantime, be sure to check out our favorite other band, Herr Metal, playing at the State Theatre this Saturday night! Do not miss it.
