Its hard to ignore something if you didnt know it exsisted. TBH we all say stupid stuff about people from time to time, im not gonna crucify him for some daft comments to the press

He's not the first musician to say something stupid and he wont be the last

Does every friendly person you meet have a false persona. Ive been to Foos gigs and seen enough on tv, interviews, hey I even watched the video of him reading the Gruffalo at his daughters school (it was my daughters fave book at the time) and feel like a good judge of character to think he's a nice guy who loves what he does for a living.

Im guessing you have trust issues.

Oh my God, Freud! You're completely right! Are there any other startling conclusions you can come to about me based on my dislike of a sycophantic rock star? I like lots of famous people, Dave Grohl just isn't one of them, he seems to always make a massive effort for everybody to love him and nobody to ever dislike him, seems far too needy to me. He also acts like a massive prick towards Courtney Love and always has done, i know she's hard work, but put her situation is context and be the bigger man instead of taking cheap shots to make yourself feel big, Dave.

    • On the whole then,yay or nay...I've had a look on festivals united and there's people who seem converted by Rock Im Park, I can imagine it might be different if it was a washout as RaR is tarmac.   The hotel side would be more to convince the non campers if it's an option. On my first visit to rock am ring we were shuttled into the area where you could stick the car next to the tent which was fantastic as it meant zero lugging of camping gear.
    • An interesting thing this. Having seem them several times (some of their gigs veer into back catalogue niche territoty), I partly agree they arent Pyramid material (theough modern defeinition of 'bangers' although I could see them headlinging the Other stage) I can't think of another festival in the world that they couldn't headline - Reading, IoW, BST, Rock Wercheter, Roskilde, etc etc.
    • Ohhh it’s very, very good. 
    • I'm sure you like silly music too but is it because it's not a Download traditional type act it gets looked down on? Rock am Ring booked them, and they sell every year so don't actually need to   Andy going and being replaced is the best thing that could have happened to Download, someone fresh to mix it up a bit rather than just a complete rotation. The only reason Andy booked ST in ti headline too was because he loves them and he was going on to manage them. Nah, Andy booked FOB in a year where over 20 acts were asked, I'll guarantee if they get Blink and having had Green Day they did not need 20 bands to come to those. FOB are also not one that have been booked in Europe to headline by anyone other than Reading as co-headliner as far as I can see. They weren't a ooh god yes they've booked FOB.
    • Would love to see them headline as well, but agree with Mr Bailey ☹️
