Foo Fighters discussion

[FloorFiller]

I haven't seen them for a long time, glasto is my only real form of live music all year, for me them opening with everlong is going to be a moment, I can't wait

see i thought so too until i saw that live stream, and it seems a bit shit. maybe it's something you have to be there for - i'm sure i'll be belting it out once it's being played in front of me

also wish they'd play just ONE more song from There Is Nothing Left To Lose. one of my favourite albums of theirs and they play the shittest song, Learn To Fly, from it and nothing else

[giantkatestacks]

Bloody hell thats a big crowd. Whats the capacity there?

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Hahaha why is Taylor singing lead vocals on the chorus of Pretender

[august1]

really torn what to do on the Friday Ronson/Foo's/Hot Chip

[markrkp]

They know how to keep a show going in Germany. If people were injured by lightening here the fun police would have the place shut down

Yep, totally agree.

If you see Ronson you still get at least an hour and a half of the Foos. That's what we're doing.

85,000 I think.

That was the plan but im liking the opening of the foos set now

It's got to be the Foos at the Pyramid on the Friday night for me I think.

I seen them at the London Vans gig, so theres no topping that which is tempting me away

[tullux]

great gig,

but as a guitarist too, the firebird headstock for a 335 drives me crazy.

this hurts.

[FloorFiller]

i wish they'd stop doing acoustic versions of their songs - the fact that My Hero has been reduced to an acoustic version on this tour is saddening

[markrkp]

I remember seeing them at Dingwalls back in 2007 or so - that was a crazy night - small place, and hot, sweaty and loud.

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Taylor Hawkins also known as Freddie Mercury..cringe

My Hero needs to be played properly and not acoustic

[Matt42]

But yes they are gonna smash it on the Friday, hot chip is great but the pyramid is where you need to be on the Friday!

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Any chance they can do this covers section in the first hour of the set at Glasto so I don't have to watch it? Boring as shit.

[august1]

terrible isnt it

[FloorFiller]

damn, i was hoping that the covers section looked shite on paper but would be great to watch, but it seems not. may be a trip to the bar or pisser for me for that then

[Rose-Colored Boy]

Imagine letting Taylor sing one of Freddie's most technical songs

[tullux]

terrible isnt it

no it is not. its an incredible performance.

Get yerself to The Park.

[Rose-Colored Boy]

So they've added Outside to the setlist but not Feast and the Famine, okay

[kingcrawler]

Imagine how many more songs they could do if they didn't feel the need to slow half the songs down and have a big bit in the middle where Dave just talks.

[The Placid Casual]

Noticed a snippet of Another One Bites the Dust was added. I'm not a great singer but I can absolutely nail Freddie's vocals in that. It's somewhat a party trick of mine.
