    Nice! Yeah, I am 31 but think I can still hold my own on the floor. :lol: Section 11 should be great! If I had ended up with LOGE seats I wouldn't have complained, but I always just go with best available and hope for the best! Pumped though. Haven't seen the Foos since they toured with RHCP back in 2000 and a reunion is long overdue!

    Is the iTunes show only available to view via iPhone/iPad/Apple TV? Like, can I see it on my computer somewhere? Don't know about everyone else but my iPhone screen is really small! :lol::lol:

    For the Boston show, I'm in BAL 319. It'll be my 7yr old son Brandon's 1st concert - I'll be bringing ear plugs for him...now if I can just find a censor button for Mr. Grohl's language I'll be all set.

    On your iPhone, though, right? I tried that, but I don't have wireless at work and I guess it keeps crapping out on 3G.

    You can? Through iTunes? I must be totally untechnologically savvy then, I thought I tried but I kept being taken to the iPhone app page. Have to try it when I get home. Thanks!

    :lol::lol: You don't have much choice over here, almost all shows are GA. Seated shows are an oddity and the Roundhouse where the iTunes shows take place is all GA, the upper balconies are for VIPs and still mainly standing if I remember correctly. It's a fab venue though, I love shows in there.

    Watching Back & Forth again right now on Palladia and it's making me want to see them live again! I've seen them 5x, the last 2 of which were secret shows here in LA where they played the album in it's entirety as part of a 2.5 - 3 hour set. They're incredible live. Highly recommend doing whatever it takes to see them.

    I think my friend and I are going to try for tickets closer to date of! We talked it over and we just gotta do it! The drive really isn't too too bad so we might just have to suck it up! Definitely would be better if it was a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday but it's the effin Foo Fighters so we just gotta do it!

    Just listened to the album again while working out, and Walk totally gives me goosebumps when it goes into, "I never wanna die, I never wanna die, I'm on my knees, I never wanna die..."

    Ughhh, can't wait until September!!

    I got the album in June and it is amazing. "Dear Rosemary" is my favorite track right now, but there really isn't a bad song on the album. "Walk" is my least favorite, but even that song is good. There's not a skipable song on the album. I like that the album is heavy from start to finish but each song manages to have its own unique elements that keep them from sounding too similar and repetitive. After catching the last bit of "Back and Forth" on Palladia, I'm amazed that the album sounds so energized when it appears as though they recorded everything sitting down. It has a "live" feel to it--as if they were jumping around on a stage instead of sitting in chairs being poked by children who want to go swimming :)
