The Foos

I picked up this video link of the Foo Fighters on SNL in 2003 from the Consequence of Sound blog. If you love music and haven't visited this site, you are missing out! One of the authors on the blog, Michael Roffman, wrote about his experience at a Foo Fighters show in Chicago and also posted the above video on the site.

I am incredibly excited to see the Foo Fighters in St. Louis on July 20. I've been a big fan of their work for years and I don't think they have ever stopped in St. Louis. Or, if they have, I completely missed them. I would have had the chance to see them a second time. They are the big headliner at the Austin City Limits Festival this year. However, my friends and I aren't going this year, but I'm happy to report that I found a buyer for my four tickets. I bought tickets a year in advance to take advantage of better pricing. It was risky, but I didn't want to miss out if someone pretty terrific would be playing at the festival. Anyway, I bought the St. Louis Foo Fighter tickets before I found out the lineup for the ACL Festival. It all worked out in the end. And, I'll be happy to see the Foos in an enclosed and air-conditioned arena instead of in the 99+ degree weather of Austin's Zilker Park.
