I saw the Foo Fighters at the Key Arena in Seattle in July of 2008 and it will be on thing of my high school years that I will never forget. Not only did they open with some great bands (Local Minus the Bear, and then Supergrass) but they played a great show. Playing almost a two hour set, covering thier entire career. Even playing "Floaty" off of thier debut album, and a smaller 5 song mini set on a round stage consisting of thier acoustic ablum favorites off "Skin and Bones." After it was all sang and moshed out, we all expected at 3 song encore like tradition, but a video of the guys back stage led to a question and cheer bickering that ended with the decision for a 5 song encore! Pulling out all the stops with Best of You, Aurora, Baker Street, Times Like These, and then finally, Everlong. Never have I stood on my feet for 3 and a half hours, screaming my lungs to ever word, and have come out with so much energy. If you get a chance, see them, like 'em or not, you will not be disapointed. I know I'm going as soon as I can!
