  • 3 weeks from today for me....can't wait....it don't get no better than Foo and Beale Street
    (well, PJ and Beale Street would be better but we know that's not happening
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

    Did anyone know that Dave played drums on a Michael Jackson song?

    You know you're a legend when Bob Dylan asks you show him one of your songs and when you get to play with Sir Paul McCartney.

    Good article about a bunch of songs the band should resurrect on tour: http://consequenceofsound.net/2011/05/l ... -fighters/

    Love that live rendition of "Headwires". Never knew that it was a tribute to Tattoo You.

    I really enjoyed that. Would love to hear Alone + Easy Target. Ones they didn't mention: Over and Out, Come Back, Low.

    Agreed.

    Other songs I'd like to hear: "X-Static," "My Poor Brain," "Enough Space," "On the Mend," and definitely "Aurora".

    I agree with the writer when he said that playing "Doll" before "Monkey Wrench" would be an awesome idea. It would amp the crowd up for what comes next.

    I heard Aurora on the One By One tour - it was fucking amazing. I didn't even recognize the song and I was blown away, especially by Chris' guitar work (which wasn't actually on the album). 8-)
