Do the Foos mix up the setlist every night?0 -
I haven't really been keeping up with the sets show-to-show but I do believe they change it some....no where near to the degree of PJ thoughAll I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

It seemed fairly standard for their Europe tour so far, so they might mix it up a little once they hit the US, but wouldn't expect huge surprises from night to night. But it still seems fresh, they still play it with a lot of vigor and it's just a rocking good time!0 -
When they played 2 nights here a couple years ago at Red Rocks, they only switched up 1 song. Great show, but not the kinda setlist that changes night-to-night."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience." Mark Twain0

I don't care how they do their set lists...if I'm going to see the Foo Fighters, then I'll be very happy to see a Foo show. I know I'll get a really good show from an awesome band.Shows: 6.27.08 Hartford, CT/5.15.10 Hartford, CT/6.18.2011 Hartford, CT (EV Solo)/10.19.13 Brooklyn/10.25.13 Hartford

I'm really liking "Headwires" right now. "There Is Nothing Left to Lose" is a very melodic album and it's creeping up my Foo list.Shows: 6.27.08 Hartford, CT/5.15.10 Hartford, CT/6.18.2011 Hartford, CT (EV Solo)/10.19.13 Brooklyn/10.25.13 Hartford

I sure wish I could find a good recording of memphis. I found one of the first time i saw them and it was pretty awful.
Also, SPIN says Wasting Light is the best of the year so far. That's a no brainer in my book.All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

"Dear Rosemary", to me, is the best track on the album. I listen and it stays on repeat for a while. Bob is amazing on that song!!Shows: 6.27.08 Hartford, CT/5.15.10 Hartford, CT/6.18.2011 Hartford, CT (EV Solo)/10.19.13 Brooklyn/10.25.13 Hartford

I'm dreaming of an Albany show. Why bands don't come upstate anymore is beyond me. It's not like a fan base isn't here!0 -
