Had tickets to their show at Sprint a few years ago. They ended up canceling because Christopher's (bassist) wife was due around the same date as the show.

you sure that was Kemper? he did that at sprint center a couple years ago. matter of fact I was on the floor and when they came to the little rear stage I walked right up to him and got some great pics on shitty cell phone. (attached below)

some interesting comments in here. I think Foo is one of the greats. I've often wondered what Grohls life would be if dumbass Kurt hadn't killed himself. would he ever have realized his potential? would he still be behind the drumset?

I've wondered how nervous drummers must have been to audition for Grohl! like....damn..... be like auditioning to play guitar in Stevie Rays band! hahaha!

today's Foo isn't yesterdays Foo. some like the newer stuff....some don't. I appreciate it all....I'm a huge fan.....but my heart lies in the older stuff. but to say they suck.....wow.....I just don't get it.

country isn't my thing. but there IS some good country out there (even though it's really rock n roll nowadays) I appreciate good music....even if it's not my bag. so to throw a blanket statement out there that Foo sucks.....wow. WHICH FOO? old Foo? new Foo? oh no....ALL FOO! just dumb.

lastly.....Not Enough Space is possibly my fav Foo song. how in the HELL can he scream like that night after night? and that bitch sounds GOOOOOD live! ain't no lip syncing bullshit. Foo is badass. Grohl kicks ass.

A lot of it really is.

if the Eagles came out as a brand new band today....they'd call them country.
I find this a tad annoying. southern rock......is ROCK. the end.

but hey.....good on ya country folks for successfully peddling rock off on the young country fans. they are all....yay country! umm....ever heard of 38 special? it's rock man. rock.

Yep. I was a big Bob Seger fan in the 70s and a lot of his stuff could pass for country today. The Eagles and 38 Special are even better examples.

Did you know that several of Bob Seger's hits were written by the Swampers, who were famously mentioned in "Sweet Home Alabama"?

I watched a PBS documentary the other night about Muscle Shoals, it was REALLY cool. Etta James, Aretha Franklin, Otis Redding, the Stones, Skynyrd. Really, eye opening.

No, I had no idea. Interesting.

It started with FAME Studios.

And then the in-house guys from there started their own company (Seger actually worked with them after they left FAME).

Yes, it was at the Kemper show. Grohl was in great form that night. Big guy with two beers got spotlighted and Grohl said "I'm going .... You and me... We are going to the titty bar together".

Seen them several times. The show at Kemper was just unbelievable. Sprint Center was great also, but something about that 07? show made it stand out for me.

When they return, I'll be there.

They dropped the 2nd stage from the ceiling at that '07 show, right? Played like a 45 minute acoustic set. I'm pretty sure they played for almost 3 hours that night.

he said the exact same thing at the sprint center show.
oh well....it's a good bit.

That's the one. Incredible show. And FUN.

It was similar. But the one penz was talking about was definitely the Kemper Show.

well....I was there. it was the EXACT same shtick. not that there's anything wrong with that.....but he did the same thing at Sprint center.

that's OK Dave....I still love you man.

We went and pre-partied somewhere downtown before that Kemper Show. Arrived about 15 minutes before Foos kicked off their set. Rocked our ass off for 3 hours, then were so hyped after, went out to the parking lot and killed a liter of polish brandy.
