    A little desperate bump.... Please let me know if you have a spare.. even if it's late in the day! Will be checking in until 4pm!
  • redrockredrock Posts: 18,341
    Oh dear.. over 100 views but no spare tickets...

    Well.. another little bump... This thread is looking quite sad with only me posting!

    Anybody with two tickets and a last minute cancellation from a mate? :D

    I'll be checking 'til about 4pm (never lose hope!!)

    Didn't see you there! :( Pip and I were front row, right to Dave....

    Hey, so you managed to get a ticket! Well done! I would love to see the foos in a tiny venue. So how was the show?!
  • redrockredrock Posts: 18,341
    I had one face, but a friend of mine was desperate to get one.. In the end, he should have hung around the venue because they let some people in... Both Pippa and I tried for tix... she got some (I got her spare) but I didn't!

    The show was INCREDIBLE. No barrier in front of the stage which was knee level so we had to hang on to whatever we found not to be pushed over... Dave and the rest were in mighty form and having loads of fun... Dave went all over in the crowd, sat playing (and other things!) on one of the speakers and generally having fun...

    Don't know if you went to last year's club gig, but this one was sooooooo much better. Pip and I got loads of swag too! :D

    Don't know what else to say other than ... THAT WAS AWESOME!!!

    G_I_G how can I be at the same gig as you and not bump into you :o ... somethings not right in the world :(

    Do you have a new number since you lost your phone? If so pm me ... we CAN'T allow this to happen again :p
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

    Yeah.. you usually creep up behind us.... pm me with your number too... (my such in demand!). Have you got your CC tix?

    You know.. I might sound like a bit of a heretic here.. but I'm prepared to say that this was the best live show I've been too (but then again... PJ at the Astoria....)

    I think the smallest place I've seen the Foos is Brixton about ten years ago! Seen them loads of times since, but I always seem to miss out on the tiny secret shows! Glad you had fun, I'll be seeing you at the Roundhouse!

    I will also be at The Roundhouse so see you there!

    Take it you are on the Foos mailing list and it was plans or seetickets that let you down?

    ... and yes Rita last night much better than The Underworld
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

    I am on their mailing list, but don't recall getting anything - I'll probably find a missed email in my spam box now, dammit! I'll blame seetickets regardless, cause they are scumbags! haha!

    Yep see you at the roundhouse... But Dave said the foos will be back in the fall for proper shows.
    Obviously they are doing the festivals at the moment but even for that he was talking about also doing some 'secret shit' whatever that may be...

    WOW!!! Foo's are my favourite band. You are sooooooo lucky!!! Wind Up!!! And New Way Home, they haven't played that in a while. I've seen Cheer up Boys Your Makeup Is Running on youtube, What's it like live?
  • facepollutionfacepollution Posts: 6,834
    Was Everlong just Dave on his own or the whole band? As much as I like Dave's solo version, I love the full band version more.

    That's why he plays guitar :rolleyes:. He did say at one of the gigs I attended that Taylor played better drums than he did.
