Quantcast

Friday Afternoon Diversion

First person Jim here. Let's see. My Lollapalooza weekend was preceded by Paul McCartney and ended with an epic rainstorm while the Foo Fighters played. Even for a guy like me, that has seen puh-lenty, it was a pretty epic week. So let's revisit the latter bookend and marvel at how four songs in Dave Grohl not only doesn't let a huge fucking rainstorm (which, by the way, literally had me and a bunch of other photographers cowering under the stage while we avoided mini-waterfalls pouring through the seams above) get him down, he fucking ATTACKS.

May your weekend be this triumphant.

  • Best rain soaked performance since Gavin Rossdale in '96. Although Rossdale may get extra points for being directly plugged into his amp.

  • ElvisStojko

    I kept trying to make "Glycerine" jokes waiting for the Arctic Monkeys to go on but they fell on deaf ears.

  • I still get goosebumps every time I watch this. 

  • It was pretty awesome!
