the electric factory??? a gym?

[shoot ur shot]

that was my only time at that place and it really did sound like a show at a gym man.. the snare was really flat sounding, the sound was extremely bottom heavy.. dresden dolls too. Could just be incompetent soundmen

 Black Keys 10/6 @ 9:30 (according to their posted schedule)

I'm pretty sure that was the date they played the 9:30 last year. It was right around the time PJ Harvey played the club.
 
 Where do you see that date on their website? [/b]

No dates there. I saw it on their myspace page. Doh and sorry if it's last year's date...

this could be the second best show at merriweather this year... me thinks a special forum pre-presale will be in order for it

Holy mother, I'll sell my future children for pit tickets....
 
 I heard about half hour of Foo on Howard.  The rest is taped for me to listen to later!  Grohl also mentioned on "24 hours of Foo" that the U.S. tour will be this fall.  He didn't mention the Weezer bit, but that's a rumor that's been floating around.

Didn't hear them on Howard, but I saw them on Letterman last night.  Yowza.

Did Grohl get on the couch, or just perform?  [Letterman loves them, bless him]

[Bombay Chutney]

I don't know.  I turned it off as soon as they were done playing and they went to commercial.

Howard loves him/them too! He asked Dave to play drums with his now defunct band. Said he'd open for them if they played in NYC.
 They played one recorded full band song -- w/ JPJ (John Paul f'in Jones) on keys!! It's awesome. Howard said they didn't need JPJ the song was amazing on it's own. Then talked about Led Zepplin. (This song is what caught my ear - I never listen to radio.)
 Then they performed (live) acoustic "Best of You". Dave said his voice was all messed up b/c they had two hours of sleep. Howard said that a messed up voice can work. Dave said that's what happened in "Everlong".
 Talked about Courtney...how new stuff will inevitably be released by Nirvana. Sorry for the droll OT...
 OH and they played their cover of Creed's "Arms Wide Open" w/ changed lyrics. Hysterical.
