Just got in from their gig tonight, and am still buzzing. Anyone else go? Hands off Dave, he’s mine!

Yeah, if only because Grohl, and I think other band members too, are AIDS deniers

Kursk · 24/06/2018 01:28

Yep they are awsome, would have loved to have seen Nirvana

GetTheeToAShrubbery · 24/06/2018 01:30

Saw them in Manchester. They were incredible (as ever). Awesome live!

AngeloMysterioso · 24/06/2018 01:33

They were so good!!! Bloody brilliant show.

DevilsDoorbell · 24/06/2018 01:34

Yanbu.

Saw them in Manchester. Epic show. Have loved them since first album.

frankie001 · 24/06/2018 01:42

I’ve finally forgiven him for breaking his leg. I had tickets when those shows got cancelled.

It took a long time to get to station after, but was very well organised.

Love them! Jealous of your seeing them!

AngeloMysterioso · 24/06/2018 01:45

frankie00 yeah that shuffle along to the tube was a bit tedious. I now know exactly how it feels to be a penguin.

Notmybuilderdotcom · 24/06/2018 01:52

Saw them in Manchester this week they were AMAZING best band ever. Loved all Taylor Hawkins drum solos too

OliveOrTwist · 24/06/2018 01:54

They are fantastic live!!

TidyDancer · 24/06/2018 02:25

I went to the first of the London gigs. Fucking amazing. I've seen them a few times and every time they've been incredible. I've seen a lot of bands but no one puts on a show quite like the Foo Fighters.

CookPassBabtridge · 24/06/2018 03:39

Jealous. I saw them at Leeds Fest years ago.. I was so looking forward to them for months, then of course in typical drunk student style ended up missing the start and was only alerted to them being on stage when I heard Everlongs dulcet tones coming from over the hill into the campsite.

steff13 · 24/06/2018 03:44

I have a friend who looks like Dave Grohl. He's actually been asked for autographs before.

Pikachuneedshelp · 24/06/2018 04:36

So jealous, they at the top of my list of bands I've never seen.

As lovely as he is, you can keep Dave but I'd fight to the death for Taylor Grin

I saw them a few years ago at MK bowl, they are awesome live!

Donthugmeimscared · 24/06/2018 07:03

Jealous I had tickets to go but it was for the time he broke his leg (so inconsiderate). I really hope to see them one day.

It was an awesome night, so glad Dave’s voice was back on form and Pat’s smile is to die for! I also loved Dave doing the timote shampoo hair flick with the water! La Dee Da was a highlight.

On a down note, the pop up shop was mainly full of tat that they couldn’t sell elsewhere. I wanted a glass but you couldn’t take them in the stadium 😢 (fair dos but why sell them and shut it slightly after the gig ended!?!?). The posters were also withdrawn as the wrong date was on them, a second batch was available at the end for cheaper than normal (robs because they weren’t numbered!).

As an avid fan who’s seen then a few times, I wish they would change things up a bit, don’t get me wrong I Iove them and they were awesome but changing some songs and adding some curve ball ones in would just be the cherry on top!

The boys done good - can’t wait to see them next time!

Biker47 · 24/06/2018 10:39

They're overated.

frankie001 · 24/06/2018 11:07

Chrome we only did it cos Dave told us to! Sorry not sorry!!

LoudestRoar · 27/06/2018 12:07
