I love the Foo Fighters! They are one of the only full fledged rock bands that are still around from the 90's. Forget all those Emo "bands," this is one of the few bands that can say their music is actually rock music.

I've been loving the Foo for quite some time. I actually remember taking my Nothing Left To Lose album to school when I was in like the 6th grade and showing everyone the 'Learn to Fly' video. It sucks and all that Kurt Cobain was murdered (yes, murdered) but I'd much rather have the Foo Fighters than Nirvana so I'm glad that Dave Grohl got the chance to spread his Foo-wings.

Its tragic that someone so talented had to die for us to get the awesomeness that is the Foo's but Dave truly is a fantastic front man. Who could ask for more?!?! I went to see them in concert in June, at the new Wembley Stadium in London and he is just amazing at not only performing live, but involving the crowd and really making it an experience to treasure. OMG How corny did I sound just then?!?! lol

Alot of people, however, don't believe that's true. There's alot of stuff out about it. I read up on it and most of it seems to make sense. Here's a website about it. www.justiceforkurt.com

Love the Foos alot. Was a big Nirvana fan but never got to see them live. I had tickets to Lollapalooza where Nirvana was supposed to headline (I'm showing my age), but Kurt, I'll just say died, before the tour started.
I've seen the Foos a few times and they put on a great live show and put out consistent albums. One of the few pure "rock" bands out there right now.

I thought Kurt Cobain shot himself. :/ He did. Whenever a celebrity is loved to the extent that Cobain was, there will be conspiracy theories surrounding his death. Tupac, for instance, was rumored to have faked his death and, because of his fixation with the number seven, reveal himself to be alive in 2002, seven years after his death. Didn't happen.

I had heard that he was coming back July 7th 2007, which didn't happen either!

I can't believe you saw them live at Wembley! I'm envious There's actually a website in which someone tracks how Courtney may have singlehandedly destroyed '90s rock/alternative music-taking it away from the mainstream to be replaced by bad music by boybands and teeny boppers

I can't believe you saw them live at Wembley! I'm envious It was actually my first ever concert and I really don't think it could be topped. Here are a couple of photos that I took, they aren't brilliant...i so desperately need a new camera. Waiting for Supergrass to come on (still pretty empty at this stage).... The revolving stage, which was HUGE! A shot from further back up the stadium steps (good job i'm not too scared of heights! lol)
