saturn Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 This is a series on HBO where Dave Grohl and Foo Fighters go to various cities across the US and document the musical scenes there. Lot's of great guest musicians and interviews with the influential people around the music. Even though I wasn't a part of, and don't really identify with some of these musical "scenes", I really enjoy these shows. I just finished watching the Los Angeles one and that was probably my favorite episode so far. Anyone else watch this show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riffster Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I have watched all of them so far, there is only one left, the Seattle episode. I got to see the Foo Fighters at The Ryman. They played a small historic venue that represents each city as part of the series. The Nashville show had Tony Joe White as a guest and Zac Brown came out later on. They played 3 full hours and the last 30 was all covers from Cheap Trick, Tom Petty, Black Sabbath, Van Halen, etc Epic show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis G Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Didn't know about it till now. Thx for the heads up. I'll have to do an HBO search. While not a real fan of Grohl or the FF's there's a lot of undiscovered talent out there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfpup Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 The wife has been recording it on the DVR, but haven't watched any yet. Glad to hear it's worthwhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfpup Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 The Nashville show had Tony Joe White as a guest ... Isn't he playing in Lucinda Williams's band now as well? Or did I imagine that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riffster Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I am not sure, Tony is getting old, he played Polk Salad Annie and he was sitting down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelvinator Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I am not sure, Tony is getting old, he played Polk Salad Annie and he was sitting down. I saw Tony in Erie, PA - 1971. He was sitting down then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riffster Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Every video Ive seen he is standing up. Maybe his back goes out once in a while? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zigzag Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Isn't he playing in Lucinda Williams's band now as well? Or did I imagine that? Tony Joe White was on Lucinda's last album. I saw the Sonic Hwys episode in New Orleans. Dave seemed out of place with those musicians and in Preservation Hall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
