[Madyaker]

That's alright I suppose. Still not going to see them though.

Really enjoyed that to be fair, some of the best stuff they've put out in a long time

You know what they say... You have to Walk before you can Run.

[Stu H]

One of the highlights of the festival for me, can't wait!

Dave Grohl on BBC Radio 1 at 5.10pm today chatting about their upcoming trip to the farm.

[Flysheet]

Like it, and as a long term fan, most of their stuff gets better with time.

GOOD LORD THAT NEW SONG  

I'm unwell today and so so needed that 

[Icewulf]

Cracking tune!! Can't wait to hear it live

[defrio29]

sounds generic and bland to me...

[Lucy92]

Sooo they're in the uk right now. Cheeky cheese and grain round two?

Hmm. Didn't realise they only had 2 hours. I was going to put them off as I expected a 2.5+ hour sludgefest.

If they just bang out the hits one after the other though, this could be a lot of fun.

I've got something to think about now.

I know nothing.....but have ears on the ground......

[JAlexander191]

Their best new song for years! Great stuff

[Simpo]

It sounds like it's made my the band they would have been if they carried on in the direction of There Is Nothing Left To Lose, does anyone get me on that? Maybe something in the production.

I luv riffs.

Quoting a friend...

Dynamicly, it's everywhere - quiet, loud, heavy, soft - that's the Nirvana method. I thought we had another "Pretender" style Foo's song with the way it opened and I rolled my eyes, then it switched gears and headed into "white limo" territory and I was like "FINALLY!!!" Hope there's alot more like this on the album, heavier Foo's is the best Foo's.

Theyre good, the king of generic and bland is headlining the next night to make them seem like they were completely raucous. 

[FloorFiller]

Only just given that new one a listen. Never thought I'd say it but I actually really want them to play it at Glastonbury. Sounds like it'd be great opener. Still a standard Foos song really but agree that it's the best thing theyve done for a while - much better than anything from Sonic Highways.

That's good.

 

And I'm no Foo's fan!

[sime]

Good song. Really like the video too. 

[Madyaker]

I'd say they'll definitely play Black Hole Sun or something by Audioslave as a tribute to Chris Cornell. Dave must have known him.

[FloorFiller]

Whereas at first I was mostly just going to see them for a nostalgia trip/because there wasn't much to pull me away, the closer it's getting and with the release of that surprisingly good/not shit song I'm actually pretty stoked for this now so thought I'd give a realistic setlist a go. Some wishful thinking but mostly realistic considering they'll almost definitely be doing a straight up greatest hits set there isn't that much wiggle room:

1. Run
2. Learn to Fly
3. White Limo
4. Times Like These
5. Big Me
6. The Pretender
7. My Hero
8. Arlandria
9. Something From Nothing
10. This is a Call
11. Breakout
12. Rope
13. Walk
14. For All the Cows
15. Stacked Actors
16. Best of You

17. All My Life
18. Aurora
19. Monkey Wrench
20. Everlong

You can pretty much guarantee they'll play Cold Day in the Sun and something shit from Sonic Highways instead of Aurora and Stacked Actors but ah well.
