Stay.Of.Execution Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Judging by the two singles they released, it might have been better to end it all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasting light was the last great thing I would argue that the last great thing he put out was Unplugged... and I own Wasting Light. The truth is, if 1993 Dave met 2023 Dave, 1993 Dave would want to punch 2023 Dave right in the face.

Yes, I'm sure he would be very upset with himself. Politically, young and dumb Grohl might have been at odds with current Dave, who is now old dumb and rich. 1 hour ago, Stay.Of.Execution said: Judging by the two singles they released, it might have been better to end it all. Very meh, but they kinda sound like everything they put out. Besides the last album where they attempted to play more funky and failed miserably. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powderfinger Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Saw them live 3 times but never with Taylor… They were ok for the first 2 albums but they’re not my thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amaya Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-12109273/Foo-Fighters-announce-drummer-Josh-Freese-tour-dates-death-Taylor-Hawkins.html I jus saw an article. Regardless if you are a fan of FF or not, Freese is respected by rock fans. The Freese brothers are very trained, really good professional musicians and are really respected. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd refer to it as "pathetic" but there really isn't a word strong enough to describe it. I'd suggest "doing something more worthwhile with your time" than visiting this site if you are so disenchanted with GN'R but we know that ain't gonna happen. Your kind just lives to complain and shit on everything. For the rest of us that actually likes or loves the band, I wish their weren't so effing many of you here polluting this site with negativity. And before some "smart guy" tries to point out that my reply here and to others on this same topic is negative -- you're right. You fight fire with fire, but the difference is I'm reactive and not proactive with the negativity. People just need to be called out for their hypocritical BS. I don't frequent sites of things I detest or mostly have negative feelings toward. Unfortunately that's not the norm here at this site. And that's the only true "deception" going on.

allwaystired Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Not much love for Foo Fighters here! I'm surprised actually. Decent enough band, some great tunes in their catalogue. I know around here we prefer our bands idle and coasting on the past, but Foo Fighters aren't so bad, surely?! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
