Ladies and Gentlemen! DAVE GROHL is a ROCK GOD!
Never in my life have I seen such an incredible rock show.. From the moment the first notes of opener "Let It Die" began, I was in some form of Heaven on Earth.
They played July 9th at Key Arena, home of the Soni....oh wait, nevermind. Anyway, Foo played some hard-rockin' tunes, a few acoustics, the hits, the emotionally moving songs..... Oh man, I can't even find the words to describe how absolutely beautiful this show was.
I will never forget it, I can promise you that.

If I had to name favorites I would say the 1st three songs were stinkin powerful and blew me away.... Also Long Road to Ruin.... Skin and Bones was absolutely beautiful.... But, Honestly (I took video of this one--will post soon!)... and Everlong.... Best of You...
Okay, so I basically loved the entire show. You get the point.
In conclusion, Dave Grohl is a head bangin, power-house, god of Rock. Goodnight.
Thank you for this post! I will be seeing the show soon.It is thrilling to read what is in store for me. I can't wait!!!!
ReplyDeletefoo fighters are amazing in concert and i except them playing in seattle will always be special. had the pleasure of seeing them in manchester last year -- still one (if not THE) best concerts ive been to.
ReplyDeletethank you for your blog comments -- radiohead video is extraordinary work of art
absolutely love the fighters of foo! I'm very jealous that you get to live in the Seattle area and go to all the concerts up there. I had the chance to visit for four days three years ago during July and the only thing I regret not doing to going to shows at local clubs. Next time I guess . . .
ReplyDeleteThanks for the suggestions about the label you mentioned, Sarathan. I had a brief chance to check the bands out you mentioned and dig them. I'll find a way to post info on them when I get a chance, so thanks! Appreciate the spreading of music love - Piece
