Dave Grohl is my hero

Monday, March 31st, 2008

I watched the Foo Fighters live when they were in Vancouver promoting their 2005 album In Your Honor, and I thought that was an amazing show. Three years and many live shows attended later, I wasn’t sure if they were still going to wow me like they did before.

I was totally wrong.

Eighty dollars (exorbitant Ticketmaster taxes included) for my floor ticket to Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace was a steal. Not only did attendees get the four person Foo Fighters lineup, but as Grohl proudly exclaimed, we were getting “100% more Foo Fighters”. For a few songs they had four extra members, an extra guitarist, a pianist, a guy who played exotic percussion instruments (various chimes and of course, the triangle), and a girl on strings (chello/violin). “We’re into that experimental s—,” Grohl explains.

Two stages, two hours, three song encore, one triangle solo. A hell of a hard rockin’ concert. There’s going to be a huge influx of people getting Foo Fighters tattoos this week.

Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
