Wow, that's all I can say to describe last night.
The Foo Fighters were absolutely amazing. It's the best concert I've ever seen. Dave Grohl is amazing and hot. We were pretty close to the action, if you had a seat in the lower section, no matter where, it was an awesome seat. They had a runway that extended lengthwise across the pitt at Credit Union Center. Also at the other end they had a drop down acoustic set. They played an awesome acoustic version of my favorite song Everlong, they played a 20 minute version of Stacked Actors complete with a crazy 5 minute drum solo, dueling guitars and a blues line. It was so good, I can't even explain. Dave Grohl knows how to play a crowd, the encore was hilarious with Dave standing in the backstage on camera, pointing at the set list they wrote out for Saskatoon, getting the crowd going for a 3 song encore. It was just amazing.
Before the concert I went out for supper with Ryan, Steve and Marnie, Barbara and Brant. Ryan and I had both bought 2 tickets for the show, so we ended up selling one set to Steve and Marnie. Ryan also hadn't met these friends really, so he was kinda kiboshed. I love my nosy friends. I'm serious, I do, it was hilarious.
I had my Dave Grohl radar on all night, even before the concert. Ryan kept on gasping at how cool the guitars were before the show, I thought he had seen Dave, it kept me on my toes. Against Me! opened. They were pretty good live as well. Not quite the showmen that the Foos were, but the music sounded great. So the whole concert was just amazing and it was really great to share the experience who likes the music just as much or even more than I do. Overall it was just an amazing night.
