PO: Foo Fighters - Sonic Highway


Recommended Posts

I am! Had to stand in line for a few hours, but I was happy to do it. $23 bucks to see the Foos in a 700 person capacity venue? Yes please.

Smaller capacity but no upstairs like 930 so get there early to get good stage position. I'm so envious. I've seen Foos a few times at secret 930 shows in the past but never at the black cat. Man it's going to be so good!

I snagged GA tickets to see 'em at Wrigley Field next year, so I'm pretty damn excited about that. I'm bummed I missed the Cubby Bear show though...

my wife grabbed 2 seats this morning.  Only $50 seats available right now, if you can even get them.  I wonder how many tix were for pre-sale?

That's the plan. I know sight lines at Black Cat aren't stellar, but barring being stuck behind an obstruction or at the very back, it should be a fantastic experience.

I just saw them in Vegas last night and, well, I've been to a lot of shows in my life and this was one of the best ones I've EVER seen. Like, wow. I saw Foos in 2008 and it was pretty good but nowhere near this magnitude. 5000+ people there and I was 25 feet from the stage. Look at this setlist!

That's a pretty killer opening 7 really. Then it's like "damn it Taylor..."

Holy hell, the Foo's at the Ryman!!  I guess I will be trying to get tix to this show as well.  Good luck to all of us trying!!  I have wanted to see these guys in smaller venues for the longest.  I stopped going to their shows once they started playing ginormous stadiums, it just wasn't the same.
