THE LIBERALS SAYS YOUR OPINION IS WRONG

Here's what David Letterman said about Foo Fighters before this performance: "Let me tell you a little something about Foo Fighters...so 15 years ago, I had open-heart surgery. These people saved my life. I was out, not doing the show for, like, 5 or 6 weeks. And I was talking with Sheila Rogers [producer of The Late Show at the time], and she says 'On your first show back, is there anything special that you'd like musically?' I said 'Well, yeah.' We had got to talking, and I said 'What about Foo Fighters?' They had been on, I think, at the time, 4 or 5 times. She said 'I'll ask them, but it could be a problem.' I said 'Just ask them, and also, there's a song of theirs I would like to hear. It's special to me, it's been meaningful to me and my heart recovery. It would be just great.' 2 days later, she calls back. She says 'Ohh, they're on tour in South America.' Then I said 'Oh, darn.' Then she said 'That's all right, they cancelled the tour.' ... She said 'They're coming back to do the show, and they're going to do the song you asked for.' ...and ladies and gentlemen, happily, we've been joined at the hip."

You see, kids, choreographed dancing, strutting, theatrics, and (possibly...) lip-syncing, isn't what makes a song great. It's the musicians and their showmanship, stage presence, passion, and (wait for it...) musicianship with their INSTRUMENTS, that make for a memorable song and performance. Now get off my lawn!!!!!

So sad, one of the hardest losses of a musician or actor since Bowie and Robin Williams.. Take care @Foo Fighters, we are so many that mourn with you.

This live version (Live on Letterman) of Everlong by Foo Fighters has both a cathartic and sparky music energy. The vocals and music of this live performance recreate the original in a first rate way.

This band singlehandedly kept actual, good rock music afloat from the mid 90's until today. As a rock listener, their albums have been unusually solid with an amazing 1-3 hits per release. They did great guitar and drum music during the shitty late 90's modern rock era, the shitty Metallica 2000's, mallcore and Nu Metal garbage, and up to this day. You have bands like the Killers and Black Keys taking up their own reigns in the genre, but Foo Fighters have created a seamless blend of punk roots, 90's indie rock and early 80's Van Halen arena rock to create a kingdom for themselves that defined a generation of guitar music that I'd feel proud to expose my kid to. Their drummer is incredibly under-rated. Thanks guys.
