'Rocks Nicest Bloke'
do you reckon he is?
yes
he probably created the website mentioned here...
mike:
do you know who's show it is?
sjm?
i hate pat smear.
i hate pat smear.
Pat Smear?!?
Woooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
i thought
they were bitching that he was "more likely to join hole than come back to the foos" a while back..
Bollox, I'm out of the country then
but probably couldn't get a ticket anyway. Not with all the ticket toting ebay-tout whores around.
I don't like pap smears either. He looks like a lemming from that all time classic computer game, I forget what it was called now.
Foos were great with Smear
and now? Well....
Not the
only date, it seems. Maybe there's more being added? Hopefully they'll do about 3 or 4.
That sounds, a bit, well...
Dull.
One of the few things worse than Foo Fighters' Quiet-At-The-Beginning-Then-A-Really-Screamy-Chorus songs are their Quiet-All-The-Way-Through ones.
this worries
the hell out of me, as if playing everlong acoustic at reading wasnt enough, or release a cd of acoustic poo, why does marrage have such a calming effect, im not happy
Wow
I know its not like theyre the heaviest band, but theyve definitely mellowed out even more recently
