With their new CD “Approaching Normal” they are back on the road, hitting everyone over the head with their passionate live shows…I just love them. And so did everyone else…

For this show, I received my first photo pass…this left me with nerves abound, as I got to shoot from the inside of the barrier…imperfect while it was, it was simply an amazing experience…

Over all a spectacular show…end to end…heavy on the new music off the new cd…with plenty of your faves, ie Celebration, Come in Closer, Hate Me, Into the Ocean etc mixed in towards the back half of the show…that of course I stayed through…

Strobes, smokey stage…oh my holy heck, Justin must have lost like 40 lbs…he is the hottest one stage for sure—the new physique combined with his always passionate delivery…though CB as always draws the camera……he is such a rockstar…

Have a look…

With time passing, perhaps, I will just remember it as an orgy w/the Foo’s…lol, if only! Up front I was…I can only dream the dream…but the Foo Fighters were fabulous………and…

Dave Grohl was so hot…I don’ t know how to describe it..it’s not his fashion sense…perhaps it is the plain guy speak…when he says he is going to play some more good shit for us,lol…or perhaps when we , the masses voiced our preference for FIVE encore songs versus his stories…he thusly tell us “Fuck you!” …with love, of course…

He promised they would play all night if they could, or until they got kicked out…we got almost 3 hours of constant music…both sides of the arena…pulsing all around…everyone got their fix…

I will say, I may be too OLD for the mosh pit! lol…oy!!!! I was almost freaked out when he said they would play for hours….I honestly didn’t know if I could handle it….the writhing throbbing mass of 10k(probably a few of which were all crushing the floor) felt like it was pressed up against me with so much force…oft times, more than 10people were crushed on top of me practically…

And so many crowd surfers surfed them selves right out of the show….as they got spit out from the writhing crowd up front, that was their cue to exit…so weird the surfing….I clearly have not gone to enough of these types of shows…I had never seen it so prevalent…oy indeed!

As to photos, I had a camera packed in my purse that I could never get to…so I satisfied the brief urges via my iPhone…mostly though, I was half rapt by Grohl & Co…half holding on for dear life…

Foo-kin Orgy indeed! Thanks Dave! P.S. he wears grey underwear…lmao, yes I was that close! So, yes, thanks for the Orgy, Dave;)
