    yeah that would be cool, although Everlong is their most popular and Dave's favorite apparently. Maybe they can play both

    Finally I get to see them Foo's live in just couple of weeks. Travelling to Sweden again to see a gig, this time to Gotherburg

    Any locals here that could suggest something to do in the city to kill time? Or some good restaurants or bars close to venue, Ullevi?

    Thanks! I'll post some kind of review afterwards.

    Ghost B.C was announced as a support for the Scandinavian shows. Which is nice, since I've seen them live before either :)

    anyone see their set lists from the past few nights? They actually started the show with Everlong. That's kinda like if PJ were to start a show with YellowLed Better or something

    I did see that.Maybe it's a Europe festival thing.They didn't do it down under.I also noticed they have been blocking out a cover set.
    Set lists have been short.1.5- 2 hour shows I guess.

    Sonic Highways 2 confirmed!
    stereogum.com/1806773/foo-fighters-are-making-sonic-highways-2-maybe-in-the-uk/video/

    "Last year, the Foo Fighters made an album, Sonic Highways, that they put together by recording in the iconic studios of eight different American cities. And frontman Dave Grohl also made an HBO show, also called Sonic Highways, in which he documented the album’s creation but also interviewed the luminaries of all these different cities, tracing their musical histories through his personal point-of-view. It was a pretty bad album but a pretty great TV show. And now he’s saying that he’ll do it again, though he doesn’t know when. During a recent NME interview, Grohl said that there would definitely be a new Sonic Highways season. (He didn’t say anything about an album, but they way he talked about it sure made it sound like they’d do that, too.) He talked about the possibility of doing an international version, or one focused entirely on the UK. And in the interview, the band also spoke fondly of the idea of continuing to tour but no longer making records at all. Watch it below."

    Anybody with a pair of GA tickets to the July 16 show at Citifield want to trade for a pair of GA tickets to the July 15 show at Citifield?

    The downside to buying these damn tickets so far in advance is scheduling conflicts.

    Yes! I just re-watched the DC episode the other day. I'm definitely looking forward to another season of this.

    Very cool. Sonic highways album was cool. think I appreciate the songs a lot more due to the documentary. The songs where always great, but I love the songs more after knowing / seeing how the songs where created through the influence of people in the music industry and the cities' background musically

    Well, that was a slightly different kind of concert tonight. Dave fell off stage during 2nd song - Monkey Wrench - and broke his leg. Dave called Taylor to step in and they played two songs without Dave.

    After this Dave returned and played few songs sitting on chair and with doctor holding his leg steady. Later he was taken backstage again and they put a cast on his leg and he returns again to finish the nearly three hour set.

    What a guy. Legend.

    Gig itself was awesome. Setlist followed partly on previous gigs from this tour, but obviously with some changes due Dave's injury. From rarities department: they played Enough Space.

    Awesome evening.
