Silenced Fred Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 anyone else excited for it? I think its really cool they are playing small secret shows (although I wish some of them were near me) because it brings them back to where they were at the beginning. Also, the recordings, as defined by Dave Grohl, were done to sound like they were recorded in their garage, which they were, and I'm glad because it won't be overproduced. And, they are going to be playing Lollapalooza so I can see them live then. I can't wait. BTW, my birthday is the week after the album gets released, so now you all know what to get me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Searcy Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Saw them open for Mike Watt a long time ago. Very good show. I had to help Dave find the plug for his Les Paul in the dark stage right just as he went on stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShredAstaire Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Dave is the coolest dude in the world. I had the pleasure of chilling with him backstage at the Queens of the Stone Age show at the Metro in Chicago on their Songs for the Deaf tour...best night of my life. I love his drumming but i never really got too much into the Foo's...though, I have heard a clip from their new album on Soundcloud and I was pleasantly surprised. Sounded heavier than their other stuff but i'm not sure. I'll definitely give it a chance!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff-7 Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 They posted the Chicago Lolla lineup already? they usually wait until April. Edit: I'm a big fan of the Foo Fighters, have always wanted to see them in concert so if they really are doing Lolla that gives me a great excuse to go. Josie Dye sent me a 30 second teaser she got and even for the snippet it was, sounded great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They usually "leak" 3 headliners, which is what happened Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff-7 Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Yeah forgot about that, lets hope Perry doesn't leak Jane's Addiction as one of the headliners again or I may be angry. Any idea who the other 2 will be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silenced Fred Posted February 10, 2011 Author Share Posted February 10, 2011 I'll check it out. Not as many ballads supposedly, goes back into stuff like "Best of You" and "The Pretender" or so I'm told. Not so many sound clips available, but if you go to foofighters.fm, they add some clips, but not that many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I love small side shows, went to Jamboree held by the local alt-rock station Q101 and the mix was awful in the big stage with the large name bands, and the sound was great on the side stage and even bands I didn't like sounded a billion times better than the big name bands, I would have killed the sound guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
