When David Grohl asked "For how many is this the first Foo Fighters gig they've been to?" That is when I screamed, jumped and proudly yelled "Meeeeeeeee!!!!" he then immediately added that we should be ashamed of having waited 13 years to see them live :)
Well I publicly apologise for being one of those virgins, and I kick myself for not going to a concert of the Foos before. The concert on the Friday 6th of June 2008 was an unbelievable display of talent, passion and an absolute master class of rock. It was a historic moment and I was there.
David Grohl and his band powered through their 13-year catalogue to the delight of everyone there. The stage was unique, providing a stunning visual spectacle. The highlights of the show the exploding beginning with The Pretender, the crowd-moving My Hero, and my favourite, All My Life. My calves hurt for days, my back ached like the most horrid torture, but I would surely repeat the experience, all over again.
My only complain? Ticketmaster.co.uk for holding our tickets instead of sending them via post as we had arranged, and the organisers of the event for leaving so many seats empty and so many Foo Fighters fan unable to witness what was the gig of the decade.
