Headliners 2015

[Matt42]

Erm...playing their own song isn't exactly mad, wherever they put it in the set.

You missed my point but hey ho

[al_coholic]

Brilliant set from the Foos so far.

[jimmyt]

You missed my point but hey ho

I assume that means you were being sarcastic. In which case, I withdraw my riposte and ask for your forgiveness.

Never really enjoyed Foos much but they're destroying the drivel that's preceded them.

[Comfy Bean]

Never thought I was much of a Foos fan but plus 1 for jimmys last sentence - above.

[Matt42]

Brilliant set from the Foos so far.

If it's anything to go by, they are going to nail glastonbury

not like anyone should doubt them

[weaz]

I'm never really that interested in them but they look incredible tonight

[GlastoSimon]

Yep, as someone who was very sceptical re: seeing them at the festival they've been entertaining this evening.

[DomDom1984]

Foo Fighters are always entertaining live these days. They've honed their act brilliantly. Can't wait to see them at Murrayfield.

[Mash011]

Imagine seeing Foo Fighters and them only playing 10 songs haha oh man. Still the songs that they did play looked absolutely killer and I'm sure they'll take the Pyramid by storm, really looking forward to Wembley.

[Ipayne]

Yep, looking great tonight as always. Having seen them twice already I wasn't bothered whether I saw them or not even though they were great both times but that has put them back on my must see list. Grohl is such a great frontman, not many around today can hold a crowd in the palm of their hand like he does.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Dave Grohl being interviewed on BBC Three spoke that the band are discussing some "surprises" for their Glastonbury set.

Let the special guest speculation commence!

The Main Foo Dave Man showed up at the Macca show on Saturday night to gurn his way through I Saw Her Standing There.

[swede]

As a massive Foo's fan (something that shouldnt be said to loud on here I know) I never had any doubts that they'll absolutely nail Glastonbury. Some of the stuff is a bit MOR on record but live they are a totally different beast, great frontman that knows how to work a crowd, songs beefed up and extended to suit a live setting, lots of songs everyone knows which is whats needed for a great pyramid headliner.

Its been 10 years since Ive had the chance to see them, between kids and work Glasto is the only "gig" I get to go to most years, so I cant wait.

Agreed. I don't listen to their studio work but the two times I've seen them live they've been excellent as they will be at Glastonbury. Seeing them last night makes the clash with Hot Chip (which is where I'll be) really quite annoying

[Gucci Piggy]

Foo Fighters opening with Everlong? The song they've closed with for years?

I'm all for them doing something completely mad like this at Glasto!

And Muse opened with Reapers! A song that is normally played late in the set! Mad scenes at Big Weekend; not sure how I'm still standing!

The Main Foo Dave Man showed up at the Macca show on Saturday night to gurn his way through I Saw Her Standing There.

Gutted for the people who went to the Sunday show. I was saying to my mate before the whole gig started that Foo's should be in the country around now and Dave wouldn't shock me. As soon as he said about a surprise up and coming guitarist coming out to play I knew it was him.

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Dave obviously spotted Matt's excitement at them opening with Everlong and decided to do it again.

If they keep it like that and open with it at Glasto that'll be one heck of a moment.

[kingcrawler]

I really hope Rope stays in the set for Glastonbury.

[DomDom1984]

Everlong to open at Murrayfield would be incredible.

[brettredmayne]

were great tonight in Sunderland, shattered but 150 minutes of non stop rock

[Mash011]

Just dawning on me how amazing the end of June is going to be... Foos at Wembley then a few days later off to Glastonbury. Fuck me I'm excited!

[Anderson19]

Is that what you got 2.5 hours? Seeing them in manchester on Wednesday so have avoided watching the big weekend highlights etc.

For Manchester they are down for 8-30 start 10-30 curfew so 120 minutes.

How much was a beer tonight?

[sime]

I am looking forward to Foo Fighters at Glastonbury. I always enjoy their shows. Really liked that tv show they did at the end of last year. Was a good bit of music history.

[zero000]

Far too many covers in that setlist. Shut up and play the hits.

[Gucci Piggy]

Yep, really annoying that they're shunning the likes of Stacked Actors and Hey, Johnny Park! for several covers.

On the plus side, they played Big Me.

[CaledonianGonzo]

I was sure my booing was loud enough to drown out anyone there that was genuinely pleased to see him, but I've watched a clip and you can barely hear me
