    They performed earlier in the show. Deadmau5 made a remix of "Rope" and the band loved it. I thought that was a pretty good performance.

    I didn't watch any of the Grammys, but your second sentence shows you are clearly taking it too seriously - not to mention it makes you look like a jackass.

    This thread is already ridiculous. Who makes a statement like the last one in the OP's post? So fucked up.

    Foo Fighters are not a joke, they are an amazing band. :mrgreen:

    Seeing Dave play with Paul Mc Cartney, Bruce Springsteen, and Joe Walsh was sick. :mrgreen:

    Deadmau5 isn't my cup of tea, but it's cool Foo fighters let them cover it, and shared the stage with them when they did.

    I watched the grammys and im saying dave grohl is a tool. I think i can have an opinion. If i offended you w how i expressed myself then so be it. I honestly feel that way. From his mimicking of mc cartney to his phony speech to his awful performances. I dont even hate foo but they need to chill out in my OPINION. And i would rather be a dead real person than a fake living one. Makes sense to me. I went to bridge school and felt same way with his cheezy, contrived presentation. Just not my bag.

    Your analogy is stupid and makes you look ridiculous - it's not that you thought Dave Grohl's appearance/speech/collaborations were bad. How "real" do you think people are at a show like the Grammys....it's an awards SHOW...for entertainment...most of it is scripted.


    Try something like: Man, what were the Foo Fighters thinking? I thought their performance was lame a cheesy - my respect for PJ has now gone through the roof!

    You are most certainly entitled to your opinion, but statements like this are just unnecessary when all of us are here for the love of music.
  • I don't personally understand how Dave can go on and on about rock not being represented at awards shows anymore, and then performing with a dance dj.

    seems a bit hypocritical.

    EXACTLY!

    Even worse is at the Sydney concert he went on a massive rant about electronic music and how much he despised it and how everyone in the audience should too...

    Listen i dont want to pis off fellow pj fans. Grohl has agitated me for a long time so i went a little cuckoo tonight. Is that okay? If you guys dont see something a bit contrived out of him then maybe it is me being hypercritical. I cant help to point to bridge school show when he struck me as something very inauthentic. Im a huge pj guy and maybe im guilty of holding him to a higher standard than i should. I should have posted that i thought dave was really over the top tonight instead of calling them a joke. I dont want to pis anyone off.
