***OFFICIAL FOO FIGHTERS THREAD***

There are times Dave Grohl annoys me for being so visible all the time but this is just awesome.  Provided food at LA shelter for almost 24 hours.  Provided and BBQd over 450 meals all paid for by himself.  That's a good man.

Man, if it is Josh Freese behind the kit, I'm extra motivated to see them now.  

I might have to look into that New Hampshire show. (can't justify the cost for a single day pass to Boston Calling for one act)

I got the 3 day pass for BC. Are there other bands you want to see on the other days?

so is it a state secret who's behind the kit?

Yeah, I would love to see QOTSA, Alannis, The Flaming Lips & King Gizzard, but the logistics of getting in there every day are a pain in the ass for me. I live on the other side of the city and work even further away (in regards to getting there for Friday night) 

and I’m just getting old… 2018 was great when there were 5/6 bands on one day I wanted to see, but for 1-2 bands a day, it’s not worth the hassle for me 

3days

Dave and the Foos do a lot of really good things. I'm frustrated by what they do musically nowadays, but I can't help cheering for them anyway. Good for him!

I mentioned it on the previous page. Nothing official has been announced but it's Josh Freese as a hired gun and not an official member.

Sounds like Matt’s going to do most of the shows

Where’s that dude with the inside knowledge that it was definitely Freese? I wonder if something changed or if it was false info.

I'll check with my source but I haven't heard of any changes to the news that Freese is the guy. Any my friend got the JF news direct from Grohl so if it's not him then something has changed.

She just responded to say that she hasn't heard anything new but she also hasn't asked if anything has changed.

I hear ya. I love Matt, and I want to love FF. My biggest hangups about the Foos are their last bunch of records, and their last bunch of tours. I used to really dig their stuff, but the band has become a letdown for me. I think they are better than what they put out now.
