David Letterman still has the best intro ever for the Foo Fighters.

"If have to say, we have some young men here, that if it wasn't for them; we as Americans would be out there every day, fighting foo."

I laughed so hard when he said that. =)

We can all sleep easy at night knowing that somewhere at any given time, the Foo Fighters are out there fighting Foo.

I'm pretty sure this is my favorite Foo Fighter's song. Love it!

Pretty much my favorite Foo Fighters song. I don't remember if it's really about Kurt or if that's just what I made up in my head.

'There goes my hero' is like Kurt dying. 'He's ordinary' is because Kurt didn't like the fame or want it. He wanted to be in a band and play with his friends. Not become a 'hero'. And to Grohl, Kurt WAS ordinary (not some rock God) and at the same time he was Grohls hero because he respected him so much. Or that's how I read it at least.

How cool would this be? Foo for 2 1/2 hours and pizza.

That wasn't putting anyone in their place. That was just meh. To see someone actually get put in their place at a concert, see:

@xxovercastxx

I think you might be right. Let's wait until it's released

I haven't listened to NiN since With Teeth, didn't realise how long ago that was. Will give the newer stuff a try,

I wasn't saying they are actually "formerly great", I was just worried that's how they were coming across; though having relistened to the whole Foo Fighters catalogue recently that might actually apply to Dave Grohl

@Shepppard

I agree completely with that sentiment, and that is his main message but my contention is with Trent saying there hasn't been much of it. I completely disagree.

Nirvana, Foo Fighters, NiN were prominent in "the soundtrack of my youth", and QotSA a little later. I still listen to all of them from time to time and have a lot of respect for their music.

To say there hasn't been "much" great music that makes use of the new technologies that have come about just doesn't fly with me. I've listened to loads of great music over the past decade; much of which is decidedly electronica, let alone just incorporating digital effects.

If he wasn't cynical then he should have said "you still need musical talent to back this up; and that's why there's so much great shit coming out".

ant, you're the worst...the worst...the worst...the worst...the worst...the worst (foo fighter's david grohl helps illustrate this point)

You're like the best. If I told you I was in love with weed and cheeseburgers would you keep me supplied with them too??
