    Does anyone actually pay attention to what Courtney Love says about anything, really? It is sad and I'm sure it hurts their feelings, but I don't think it reflects poorly on them one bit.

    I'm glad Krist and Dave have a good relationship, at least.

    The only way she'll shut up is if people stop listening. And posting her shit on message boards.

    Oh yeah, hehe, just posted on Lost Dogs. Seems like it might still be best to buy vinyl from Amazon, but if you're still looking for a tour shirt or sweatshirt or other things, this would be really handy! :mrgreen:

    Agreed. Vinyl: going to Amazon. Shirt: going to FF store.

    go to this site:

    http://www.foofighterslive.com/

    go to forums and create a profile, looks like you have to search around in there a bit, but that is the only thing I have come across for Foo boots.
  • SuziemaySuziemay Posts: 11,168
    Oh rickzoo, you got me so excited but it looks like nothing past 2008? I would LOVE the IZOD show, I think that was much better than MSG. Although MSG did have Bob Mould and Joan Jett :mrgreen:

    You have to look through the threads in the Recording Distribution sub-forum. There are quite a few shows from this tour, but I don't see IZOD or MSG or Philly. Could be they just haven't put them out yet.

    If you're on the foo board, there's a poster called studmore who runs foofighterslive.com...he should know if there's anything out there at all.

    Dave's interview with Conan back in 1999 is hilarious stuff, like Dave's impression of Pat.

    So I just got the vinyl reissues and was wondering what the originals had in the way of liner notes. These are nothing but the records in plain white sleeves with a download coupon. None of them are gatefold sleeves either. I have ESP&G and Wasting Light on vinyl and they are much better with regard to liner notes.

    Yeah the packaging for these is really disappointing.

    TEAM FOO!! Although Adele seems sort of a shoe-in. Hopefully they'll pull an Arcade Fire :D

    I think it will go to Adele or Lady Gaga, but I would love to see the Foos win this.
  • samjamsamjam New York Posts: 9,283
    If I'm not mistaken, don't all album of the year nominees perform? If so, very much looking forward to seeing the Foos do a song! (Most likely would be Walk, I'd think)

    Finally got around to uploading some pictures of the poster for the Dec. 3rd Melbourne show.

    Its a pretty cool poster, and this thing is big!! 12 X 36!!!! So I guess this one will have to be a custom frame job!!

    Enjoy!!

    It was said to be limited to only 200, but the poster is only signed, not numbered! So I could have been lied too!!! hehehehehe

    Nope, its the poster artists. Rhy Cooper, and he is Australian, and he has done a few Pearl Jam posters.
