Looking forward to another Friday night refreshing efestivals to see if parson jack got into the secret foo fighters gig.

Genuinely, one of the most memorable moments on here. The night we all lived through parson jack.

It's Dave Grohl playing:

The one and only night in the last 30 years I’ve ever attempted poetry !! Bad as it was ... the result was so great (not from the poetry I hasten to add )  

[Hugh Jass]

It actually happened then?

Fair play.

[Gnomicide]

Dave with Rick Astley on drums apparently. 

 

[gordong]

Yeah, it was pretty surreal. They came on and played for about 30 mins. Played Big Me, Times Like These, Everlong, Never Gonna Give You Up, Best of You.

Not bad for a fiver.

Foos were terrific tonight in Glasgow,  and a great version of AC/DC let there be rock went down a storm. And it didn’t rain. A few moans about the mud but for us glasto goers it was nothing .  Certainly not the wellie swallowing mud of 2016!

And act to Dave g tonight he met the bay city roller singer back stage.  So it could have been Shang a Lang added to the set!

As mentioned the other day - 11am Friday announcement for Frank Carter

I hope they keep up their streak of playing the Wedgewood Rooms, the couple of ones I've been to have been fantastic. Something tells me the venues might be slightly bigger this time round.

I could see Feb '20 being the end of their tour cycle until at least the festival circuit. It will have been a year since they started the tour with the UK shows in smaller venues. 

@Tommy101 academy size are you thinking? They've done that size before though.

I'd guess a big academy tour probably with Ally Pally as the big date? They've done Brixton before so I'd guess they'd want to step up.

They have been added to that Peaky Blinders festival; unfortunately as a headliner. Can't believe how overpriced it is

Apropos of nothing... The Ziggo Dome is a great name for a venue.

How popular are Slipknot? They were one of those bands who a few people at school listened to back in the day and I would recognise a few songs but a bit heavy for my liking. 

I would have said more a Brixton Academy band than the O2 but clearly what do I know.

They're pretty big, album went to #1 recently.

They'll sell out arenas without breaking a sweat.

Was reading an interview the other day, and they consider arena shows to be "intimate". So yeah, they're pretty huge tbh

Robot Wars veteran as support is a brave move.
