I actually like the Foo Fighters, they have a nice style. They have lots of great songs too. Oh, and I have to agree, "Pretender" is a pretty chill song.
They're great live, and Dave Grohl is fucking hilarious. He's from the Seattle area, of course, so when my friends and I were there last summer for the concert he was asking where people were from.
We're from a tiny town on the Olympic Peninsula, of course, and when he asked if there was anyone from our town my friends and I freaked out and started yelling. Other people booed at us. Dave Grohl just goes "Hey man, don't be the people from fuckin' Sequim! Fuck yeah guys, rock on!"
They're an okay group, might take a deeper look into some of their stuff, as I'm kind of interested to take a gander at what the former members of Nirvana did after Cobain's death.
