A positive COVID test has forced the cancellation of the Foo Fighters concert at the Forum, set for Saturday.

The rock band posted on Twitter that "Despite having made every effort to follow CDC COVID protocols and local laws, there has been a confirmed COVID-19 case within the Foo Fighters organization."

The tweet did not specify if the diagnosis was for a member of the band or the staff.

A new date is in works. Tickets for Saturday's show will be honored at the rescheduled performance.

Comedian Gabriel Iglesias also announced he had tested positive for COVID and was cancelling performances in San Antonio.
