Re: Foo Fighters

I like the Foos a lot, but don't like hoe Dave seems to scream out every song anymore.  Especially live.

Gibson 60th Anniversary 1959 Les Paul Reissue, Gibson LP Standard Faded CSB, Gibson Gary Moore LP Standard, Epi Joe Bonamassa GT LP, Epi Zakk Wylde LP, Dean Michael Schenker Flying V, Jackson Randy Rhoads V, ESP/LTD George Lynch Kamikaze, EVH Striped Series R/B/W, Fender/Squire John 5 Telecaster, Fender Joe Strummer Relic Telecaster

Re: Foo Fighters

Dave's never had the best voice and they are kind of hit and miss live....but I was totally thrilled last year to get my picture with Dave as I just happened to walk into the same hotel lobby before the " Them Crooked Vultures" show in Portland...He is a very cool dude.... I mean... he was in Nirvana!!....By the way....TCV ROCKS! Dave belongs on the skins!!

I couldn't agree more, and sometimes the music is too loud and screechy to. Did I say that, ehe.

I do like the FF's tho, These Days is my favorite song on the new album so far.

Re: Foo Fighters

Love the Foo Fighters. Absolutely amazing band. Really looking forward to the new album. In 20 years when people look back and say "Who was the most important rock band of that era?" I guarantee you the Foos will be one of the first 2 or 3 mentioned. Dave is the man!

Of course I am. Been for years. They're keeping the spirit of rock and roll alive and well in these dreadful mainstream times. smile

Re: Foo Fighters

We talk here about Joe's amazing work ethic .... the same can be said about Dave Grohl, & 8 yrs older ...... the man is driven..... never stops working / many projects on the go....ect,  very much like Joe in that respect.

Re: Foo Fighters

Love the foo fighters...heard 2 songs from the new album and they sound amazing! Dave Grohl is a genius rock song writer (great melodies and heavy), and great performer. A true rock star.

I actually like the screaming a lot  big_smile

Love the new album!  Can't wait to see them live again.  Saw them on the last tour for Echoes, Silence, Patience, and Grace, and they put on a simply amazing show!  It was a big arena show, but they made it feel so warm and intimate.  It really struck a chord with me (no pun intended).

I have a lot of respect for Dave Grohl too.  Seemingly good guy, great work ethic, lots of projects going, and a real love of music and musicians.  Plus he's pals with Lemmy!  How can you be bad if you're a pal of Lemmy????   big_smile

Re: Foo Fighters

Full concert from Late Night with David Letterman (Live on Letterman), starts off with the whole new album from beginning to end, then greatest hits. Over 1 1/2 hours of live Foo Fighters! Best rock band on the planet.

Re: Foo Fighters

Best Foo album in a while....Dave does seem to have vocal issues live, but on disc, they sound good.
