Foo Fighters tonight, should be awesome

cheradenine

Me too!!
You seen them before?

N1cky

Yes, in Oakland a couple of years ago, they were fantastic. Have you?

Hoping the rain stays away.

cheradenine

Yeah I saw them in Cardiff, upstaged the hell out of oasis ha ha.
I think it's supposed to rain for a bit tonight

The Foo's were fantastic, Grohl is such a great front man, even while sat on a throne, love his interaction with the audience. They can really play, banged out some great songs last night. It was good to see them outdoors, I could hardly hear anything for 2 days after we saw them at Oakland

The rain stayed away Especially glad as there were no lights in our shitty carpark, and everyone was wandering around aimlessly trying to find their car.

Death Cab for Cutie were fantastic and the Santa Barbara bowl was possibly the best venue I've ever been at. (Sniff...Glasgow Apollo.)

We changed Foo Fighters from an arena to an open air venue near us, at Castaic Lake, CA.
They're doing a charity gig and it's during the day so should be an experience.

In one 7 day period we're seeing Florence, Foo's and added last night...Blur at the Hollywood Bowl.

Going to be knackered that week. Feel like I'm 25 again.

N1cky

Nice. I got excited then when I saw Blur, but see it's only the one show, shame, I'll be in LA the week after too.

Just booked Muse for San Diego in December.
First time since seeing them since 2003 at the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver.

Did you sell your Foo Fighter tickets for Anaheim?

Hotscot

They gave us a refund due to a date change...

N1cky

I hope you haven't made a mistake doing this, personally I'd have done both. Seeing them do a charity day time gig is not the same as seeing them do their own concert, playing for 2+ hours with all their lighting and set=up... I'm sure it'll be good, but not as good.

Paul Weller at The Fillmore last night. Firstly, this was the first time I'd been to The Fillmore, what a great venue, they have posters made for all the bands who have played there, and lots of these are framed and cover the walls in the bar areas. It was great to look at all these, and see the famous bands who have played there, going back to The Doors and Jimi Hendrix... They also handed out the Paul Weller poster as we left the building last night.

Weller himself was fantastic, he sounded as great as ever, and even said a few words for a change. He played a real mixture of songs, but mainly from his last 2 albums, with some Style Council and Jam songs thrown in. 2 Encores, and the last one was A Town Called Malice, which of course had the place jumping.

I'm seriously considering trying to get down to O.C. for Friday night, to see him there.

So. Cal. folks, he's got 4 nights, at 3 different locations Tue.-Fri. if you can get there, I'd highly recommend you go.
