One of the most gratifying things about my multi-tracked career is the ongoing opportunity to develop relationships - and, in some cases, enduring friendships - with some of the most talented people on the planet. You may not immediately know their names, and they may not be A-list celebs, but I assure you that they are prodigiously gifted in their respective fields - and I'm always confident t...
Just the other day, "All My Life" by the Foo Fighters came on my car radio. It's a good tune, certainly not a great one. But as I listened, I reflected on how Dave Grohl basically is modern rock music. I'm not a major Foo Fighters fan, yet I'm inclined give it up for this guy. Here's why…#1. He's a jack of rock trades.Over the course of his musical career, Grohl's been involved with indie (grew...
Coldplay, Foo Fighters in frameNo one who saw the recent footage of the Australian bush fires could fail to have been moved by the scale of the tragedy.Sweeping across the southern state of Victoria, the fires caused an immense amount of damage with the death toll ultimately reaching two hundred...
Okay, so they’re not working yet, but it’s still exciting. From Spin:“We’ve gotten together and minced ideas already,” Hawkins told NME.com of the band’s follow-up to 2007’s Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace. “Just basic ideas and we’ll probably do that over the next year until we have a log of ideas… I’d say maybe by [...]
Dave Grohl is known as being one of the nicest and coolest dudes in the music business. So when he and the rest of his band the Foo Fighters start sending out press releases denouncing the McCain camp you know the nice guy's pissssssed off!After hearing that McCain had been using the Foos song "My Hero" at campaign rallies without the consent of the band, its management, label or publishers, th...

On Tuesday, the Foo Fighers played at the former Continental Airlines Area (and the even-more-former Brendan Byrne Arena… man those were Chris Terreri days…), the IZOD Center! And I was there! It was a pretty good show, for the most part. Aside from Dave Grohl being full of himself and a few douchey fans in front of us, it was quite enjoyable. I'm not trying to bad-mouth Dave Grohl… he didn...

I'm trying hard to like the new Foo Fighters album. And why shouldn't I? Dave Grohl was in Nirvana. Dude's a drummer (I was once) who plays guitar (I want to learn) and who sings (I can't). Then there's this thing about the record being a Grammy-nominated album of the year. But I just want to hear the rocking songs, the ones with those hugely massive guitar hooks the Foos are really good at. ...
This weekend, I turned my apartment's heater on for the first time in four or five months. Fall's officially on in Vermont, which now means long sleeves, hats, a spectacular array of colors in the hills and leaf-peepers coming to gawk. Growing up in rural country and dirt roads, I have a special appreciation for the changing of the seasons. It's a beautiful sight. Is This the Fall? - Carbon ...
One of the last great true alternative bands to remain from the landscape of rock from the 90s, Dave Grohl-fronted Foo Fighters have announced on BBC One that maybe it's time to take a break. "We've never really taken a...
