    Repost warning!

    I am now a fan of the Foo Fighters. They went up against the Westboro Baptist People protesting. http://www.jtmp.org/jtmp/index.php?q=node%2F83

    The loud music drowned out those psychos.

    That's pretty damn cool.

    Probably doesn't hurt sales either, I want to go out and buy an album now.

    This is fantastic. The Foo Fighters just got a whole lot better in my eyes.

    Better to be a racer for a moment than spectator for a life time.

    I've mentioned him on here before. He is truly unique as far as rockers go. Good family man, fun to be around even for an old geezer like me. Got into trouble for drinking- got a DUI in Australia- on a moped. That's it.

    I've never heard a foo fighter song that did anything for me, but i'll give them a thumbs up for this.

    Hey cwh, I found that photo of y'all at Thanksgiving..

    Tell him we said, "good going, dude!" Those WBC folks are disgusting.

    How can it be a midlife crisis, when I've driven sportscars my entire life?

    Thanks for the pic. That's me on the left, my son Chas, David, my son Tim. In 1979, Dave played drums for the first time, on Chas's set. My boys go to a lot of David's shows, but not this one. It's fun to have a family like mine!

    I'm not sure what he is doing in this gif...but it's hilarious.

    The world is a better place now that they have fought all of the Foo... Keep fighting that Foo guys!

    Dave Grohl is one of the few famous people that i want to meet. i've been on a huge Foo Fighters kick for about the last 6 months or so- i've always liked their songs and loved their videos, but i didn't realize they were such an awesome rock n' roll band until i saw them playing Wembley on VH1 Classics this spring.

    their new album is awesome from start to finish and the "Back and Forth" documentary really shows just how "normal" they are for a bunch of world famous rock stars..

    so CWH- next time you see him, please tell him "thanks" for just being "Dave Grohl- normal dude that just happens to be a world famous rock star" and give him a big "berkeley yeah" for putting on this show for the Westboro special needs squad..

    The only thing that would have topped that is if they played an Elton John cover.

    All you Foo Fighter fans need to watch Back and Forth. Great Documentary about the greatest Fighters of Foo!

    You cant say many good things about rock stars. This alone would make me a fan, but being not a huge fan, hes been a part of a few of my favorite songs. Good people are good.

    Dave Grohl is a cool guy. It's cool that he's the nephew of a member here and is against the WBC.

    I feel like another one of our members should have been on the ball and posted this first.... Not using any names of course.

    I like the Foo, but I have always been more of a Nirvana fan... Either way, I approve.
