his solo stuff is pretty much the same as his band stuff. maybe slightly more somber.

Seeing them in Sheffield on 12th November. Looking forward to it very much, but still not too sure about the new album.

Will, really? I think the new album is a pretty solid one and I like it waaaay better than In Your Honor.

[zero_zero_UFO]

i have to agree. In your Honour would have been much better if they just got the best off the 2 albums and put it on one. the material was stretched a bit too thin i think.

Echoes, silence patience and grace is a grower. you definately have to give it time. i have just had it playing in my car solidly for the past couple of weeks gearing up for the gig and i have fallen in love with it.

best gig ever. amazing setlist, great performance, great atmosphere.

serj tankian was the worst support ever...but anyway the foos more than made up for it.

they could show bon jovi a thing or two...

1) about 1/2 way into the show a circular stage descended from the ceiling in the middle of the arena, with all the kit on it and the band played some acoustic songs from there, so people at the back could see them close up. brilliant idea.

2) in the encore Dave Grohl just said - **** it this bits for our fun not yours- and they played songs that they wanted to play, rare songs that they don't play as much. exactly what an encore should be. and it blatantly was for our fun! amazing

3) now the foos also have a fiddle woman and a couple of extra players on this tour, not unlike bon jovi. but as soon as the acoustic bit was over and Dave started Everlong they all buggered off just leaving the proper band. thats how bon jovi should do it, get them off stage ASAP.
