    I got a pair for NYC. The only issue was that for this presale they were only selling GA to Citicard holders, which I am not one of. I got decent lower decks close to the stage. But I am going to see if GA will be sold to everyone at the regular sale. If so, I will get those and sell my reserved on F2F. 
  • Got tix to Fenway! Can’t wait to be on the field both as a Red Sox fan & first time seeing foo.

    sigh... before Taylor passsed they were going to play in our 7000 seater arena.   Closest show to me is Safeco Field, in the summer on a workday.  Unfortunately i'm going to skip and hold out hope they play Vancouver again at some point.  Seattle is not a cheap to stay in during the summer :(

    I was thinking of hitting Minneapolis next July. But I think I'll hold out they come back to Winnipeg for the first time since 2000-fucking-8. But I guess it would have to be our outdoor stadium, which would mean 2025.

    I thought about GA, but the heat in July in Cincinnati coupled with my wife having issues with her hip lately which makes standing for hours painful for her, I settled on aisle seats in the lower bowl on the third base side. She is excited. She has wanted to see them for a while.

    Maybe?  The last time they played Vancouver was in 2018, and they played the Arena, while Seattle which was right before (or was it right after) was at the baseball stadium.

    I'm kind of wondering how FF will settle into touring.  This year it was dipping their toes with some festival dates.  Next year its a smaller tour (for them) in big venues.

    With what happened, I wonder if they'll hit the brakes on their touring a bit.  They used to tour like they were 20.  If they go back to that I could see Arena's in smaller markets again.

    I wouldn't want to even attempt to get tix to a Foo show in Winnipeg in our 13,000 seat shed. Impossible at this point.

    Dave breaks down how he wrote ‘The Teacher’ on a new episode of Song Exploder. It just makes it even more heartbreaking.

    Love this more and more w/ each listen. I haven't been this excited about their music since high school w/ the first four albums out by then. This is early Foos all over it. Show Me How is something else. Never thought I'd hear something this deep, personal, and lo-fi at this point in their career.
