    Foo Fighters will be one of the headliners at Glastonbury this year:

    "...we will be seeing you over the summer at some big outdoor festival that nobody knows we're playing. It's Glastonbury! So we'll see you at Glastonbury - thanks a lot everybody!"

    Foos were awesome in Sydney last night. Dave didn't stop, highlights included Arlandria into Monkey Wrench, Dave's run way with spinning centre stage for cover set and Brad Wilk from Rage Against the Machine drumming for Ain't talking About Love while Taylor sung.

    don't admit you went to a Nickleback show

    It was good,they rocked.Pop evil who is awesome opened up.Im not ashamed.I go to a lot of fucking shows.Talented musicians never disappoint.Plus I don't give a flying fuck what others think.So there is that.
    If you cover Metallica,Bryan Adams,Zeppelin and the Foos live your ok in my book.Dont really get the hate for them.Some of the stuff is a little bubble gum rock ballads stuff but the rockin stuff makes it all ok.Shit I'm not a big fan of some of PJs quirky stuff,but I still love most of it.

    yeah that would be cool, although Everlong is their most popular and Dave's favorite apparently. Maybe they can play both

    Finally I get to see them Foo's live in just couple of weeks. Travelling to Sweden again to see a gig, this time to Gotherburg

    Any locals here that could suggest something to do in the city to kill time? Or some good restaurants or bars close to venue, Ullevi?

    Thanks! I'll post some kind of review afterwards.

    Ghost B.C was announced as a support for the Scandinavian shows. Which is nice, since I've seen them live before either :)

    anyone see their set lists from the past few nights? They actually started the show with Everlong. That's kinda like if PJ were to start a show with YellowLed Better or something
