    I didn't see Peter Criss as an option.
    Neither did Dave.  =)

    Brad Wilk (Rage)
    I think it could be Brad...let's face it, Rage is not making any new music.  Zach is pretty adamant about that from what I understand.  He would be a good fit.

    I have already been their number one fan, right as The One started playing on MTV and untill it went out of the rotation.

    I personally think it should be Julian Dorio. Julian is the drummer for the Athens rock band, The Whigs, and currently drums for multiple artists, including The Lone Below, Amanda Shires, and many others. He was the drummer for the Eagles of Death Metal when the horror in Paris took place.

    Here is a video from when The Whigs played Letterman.

    Rufus is Roger's son, not Taylor's. Nothing to worry about.

    Apologies-my exasperation at Freese's omission was meant in jest.

    Pat still plays drums for Weezer in the studio doesnt he? And Josh plays live when he has the time? Seems logical for Dave to record everything from now on if they want to go on.

    They can have Josh.  Then we can have an opener on the next pj tour.

    I enjoyed Josh’s sets. Short, good choice of covers and PJ members coming out was awesome. Plus he adds a lot to PJ

    Love Josh, but do you really think he has the chops for the FF’s catalog? Or just being flippant about a talented musician?

    Yeah. Taylor was a monster but chops wise Josh is every bit as good. He's so versatile it'd only be a question of style. Look at his CV. Plus the name that stands out in it is Sting-a nice coincidence given Taylor's reverence for Stewart.

    Is that the Vandals?

    I would love to see him back on stage w/ APC, if they ever do another project.

    Those are The Replacements when they did a reunion tour 6 or 7 years ago-  Tommy Stinson on bass, Josh Freese, drums, Paul Westerberg, guitar, lead vocals, not seen  to the right of Paul is Dave Minehan, lead guitar).  The original drummer was Chris Mars who now does great work as an artist, and the former original lead guitarist was the late Bob Stinson, later replaced by Slim Dunlap (retired due to having had a serious stroke).
    I love this band!

    No disrespect but I'd much prefer Dave Grohl to do a new TCV album with Homme and JPJ than get back into the Foos. The Foo Fighters have never been for me, whatsoever.

    I used to feel the same way about TCV but their performances at the 2 Taylor tribute shows have cured me of that feeling. So disappointing.

    Why? 

    I was also disappointed in the set lists at the tributes, but that doesn’t make me like their music or desire a follow up album any less. Sure, it was a missed opportunity, but it’s not as if TCV were on the bill by name.

    My prediction is that Dave will do all drum tracks for any new FF material and they will just tour with a touring member on the drum kit.

    I think it's gonna be this. He did pretty much all the instruments off the first Foo's album.
