The Foo Fighters annouced that they would be playing a special concert in Las Vegas on September 9. They are going to have special guests, including QOTSA and others that I can't remember. Anyway, the tickets were FREE! However, this was announced on-line on September 5 but I did not hear about this until today. Of course, the show is sold out. AUUUGGH! Maybe if I wasn't only on SC.net all the time, I would have heard about this earlier. :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

Weeeeellll.....These type of show normally are announced to friends, family, paying members of fan clubs, Josh Homme's drug dealers and hangers-on first...word of mouth and you have to know one of the above to get there in time. This gets to be practically a real feat if the show is for free.
Do not be angry. Mostly the bands get a kick out of it and a lot of publicity from this type of schtuff.

Not really angry. Just the EQ over reacting. I do this all the time. You should see me watching the Packers.

Mrs EQ: Honey, could you please stop screaming "YOU WEINERS!" at the top of your lungs? You're scaring the cats. It's still the first quarter and the game is still 0 - 0.

ooouch. oh that's a royal pain in the whatsit. Hope your gig karma improves!

I've only ever seen dave grohl playing with queens of the stone age, at the glastonbury festival. I swear to god you could have seen the huge grin on the guy's face from outside paris. not my kind of music as such, but soooo goood.

Hmm, you know, I think I heard mention of this myself via the Foo newsletter or a blog or something, but I didn't pay it much attention because it sounded like they were looking for a bunch of camera-ready cardboard hotties to fill the audience more than genuine, regular fans (you had to actually submit a photograph of yourself before you'd get a chance to get tickets!)

So don't beat yourself up too much about it.

Dude, I saw the in-store pics. You ARE hot.

But missing the Foos? still a loser. a hot loser, but a loser nonetheless.

(anyway, I missed them in Auckland once when my littlest got very sick. i was a loser. but a good mommy loser.dave would understand now...)
