2013 Headliners

you have no soul

to edit; you could of moved and gone to a different stage!

I think most people would say "drummer" when they hear his name - revisionism be damned.

[eoinca]

I don't hate the guy. He seems like a genuinely pleasant chap who's always happy to take the time to chat with the people who put him where he is today.

I do, however, think that his music is a prime example of mediocrity hailed as genius. FFs have roughly five or so unstoppable bangers and a slur of average tunes that seem to be parodies of said bangers. That's my view anyway.

[Ed209]

Also, yourself and Eds confusion about where the Grohl on drums chat came from? It was you two who started it!

[redmosquito]

Grohl is a decent drummer but he's no Ringo Starr.

[Wooderson]

yup, i know I started it. was never meant to be more than a "I like dave's drumming" comment though. I have a big hand in starting this whole Grohl thing in the first place by commenting on willutalk's bizarre rant about the brits giving Grohl a bad impression of britain. For that I can only apologise, although this thread has been considerably better for the "which is the best Beatles record" and "is Dave Grohl a turd" deviations.

Find it amusing that people want to turn this into a pissing contest about his stick skills.

[Filthy]

Her situation ? What you mean the fact she murdered Kurt Cobain and made it look like suicide...................................................................lets go fishing !

[Ed209]

My contribution was that in comparison to his frontmanship (is that even a thing?) his drumming really appealed to me. He might not be Neil Peart or Thomas Pridgen or Brann Dailor but his drumming is distinctive and full of personality. Records he drums on are rarely worse off as a result. Find it amusing that people want to turn this into a pissing contest about his stick skills. The guy can play the drums better than most.

[Ed209]

Ban him!

[Wooderson]

Why? Whats wrong with discussing his musical competence? Hes a musician isn't he? What else are we going to talk about?

[dingbat2]

I hope there is one of those millennium bug thingies on this website. When it gets to 10000 posts on a thread then it goes back to 1 again, and all 10000 previous posts are lost. I dont think we would lose much if this happened

Fingers crossed, we are nearly there...

So at the moment is it looking more likely for Mumford to be the Sunday headliner or to be a backup/sub for The Stones on the Saturday?

[The Nal]

A few more Cliff posts and I'm probably there

now where is that Cliff thread!?

[adebola]

Agreed. Grohl doesnt have a single writing credit on that record though mate. A hired gun in the best sense of the word.

[russycarps]

A hired gun that provides some of the best drum tracks in recent years mind

[Avalon_Fields]

like what?

[adebola]

A song for the dead? First it giveth?

[The Nal]

like what?

I loved this set. I sat on the floor with a stinking hangover staring at the ground.

It was the best hangover I've ever had.
