    I feel bad for the Foo Fighters.
    drivingrl: "Will I ever get to meet Gwen Stefani?"
    kevinbeetle: "Yes. When her career washes up and her and Gavin move to Galveston, you will meet her at Hot Topic shopping for a Japanese cheerleader outfit.

    Next!"

    Bloody awful lot, indeed.

    Does anybody even watch this crap? The poor Eagles and Foo Fighters were stuck with all these bands that no one will remember in 5 years.
