 Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 7797 | December 19th, 2006 at 09:02pm The Fool On The Hill:l;dgjhkdj I loveeeee playing that song sooo much. It's so easy and I love how he adds the pinky on the high e string and it gives the lovely sweet sound RAWR. Definitely one of my fave Foo songs to play.  Me too! ... along with a million other Foo songs  They're all fun to play. |

 Age: 34 Gender: Female Posts: 26154 | December 19th, 2006 at 09:47pm I couldn't remember how to play Marigold for the sake of my life today. I remembered the chords I just completely blanked out when it came to the rhythm  . I wanted to shoot myself but I keep playing Ain't it the Life all the time and now thatI've been playing my electric a lot more I don't like playing Big Me on the acoustic cuz I lvoe when I turn down the Treble and flip the switch up and get that cool sound liek the original. It's not as xcore but close enough.
*HUMS BIG ME* |

 Age: 34 Gender: Female Posts: 26154 | December 20th, 2006 at 11:02am It doesn't sound bad acoustic but once you get a taste of what it sounds liek when you play with the settings it's awesome. Like I don't really like playin For All The Cows acoustic cuz it doesn't have the same ...power? But I'll play Ain't it the Life and Aurora since I don't have the echo  I NEED PEDALS. GAH. I'm trying to save up for some. I've only gotten like 15 bucks so far for chanukah. goddammit. But I think I'm getting money from my family in Cali, England and my grandparents. So  YAY.
Learn Stacked Actors  I only know the intro but goddammit it's ugh. SO MUCH FUN. I could just stand all day and play it over and over. *hums* |

Foo Fighters
Skin And Bones
RS: 3of 5 Stars Average User Rating: 4.5of 5 Stars
2006
View Foo Fighters's page on Rhapsody
Since his old band made the greatest unplugged album ever, Dave Grohl deserves credit for simply having the stones to release a stripped-down Foo Fighters disc. But Skin and Bones -- recorded live during three recent Los Angeles shows -- lacks the revelatory power of its predecessor: Grohl sometimes seems unwilling to stick with bare-bones arrangements, pushing his giant band (which included the Wallflowers' Rami Jaffee, violinist Petra Haden and former Foo Pat Smear) into unnecessary big-rock crescendos in the final bars. Still, the album's best and most restrained moments -- the mostly guitar-and-voice opener, "Razor"; the plaintive, folky take on "Big Me"; and the climactic, slow-building "Everlong" -- illustrate how Grohl's songwriting gift moved him out of Kurt Cobain's shadow in the first place.
But of course they HAVE to reference to Nirvana  I do sorta agree with it somewhat. As much as I love the Skin and Bones album, they did go a little over the top. Even if I'm a bigger Foo Fan I think I still prefer Nirvana's Unplugged. |

 Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 7797 | December 20th, 2006 at 03:33pm I acutally JUST learned Stacked Actors a few days ago. It's fun to play, but my band can't cover it yet cause all of the local places are only looking for mellow music  |

Stacked Actors is so fun. One of these days I'll actually tune my guitar into the proper tuning, I think it's A, and play it right.
And yeah. No one ever reviews the Foos without referencing Nirvana. *shrug* It's kinda inevitable, I guess. Annoying but inevitable. |

Yeah it's inevitable. Dave just ignores it, He's a swell dude. TUNE IT ANNIE. God. It takes 5 seconds to tune one string. I haven't played Daughter in ages though cuz I'm much too lazy to go into G tuning. I love it but I'm fucking lazy.
I want another electric guitar so I can have one tuned 1/2 step down and the other in standard. That way I can switch between Nirvana/Green Day songs on the 1/2 step electic and standard for Foo songs. |

He's fucking adorable with all the references of his daughter and he's actually really political and stuff.It's interesting. READ DAMMIT.
Ironically I was just talking to my mom about Global warming 2 minutes before I read this. We were talking about the Rolling Stone article about the trillion dollar war. |

When are you recording Big Me? When either
A) My friend's tightwad dad lets us use his recording studio  or
B) I get a better mic for my computer
 Hopefully one of the two things will happen soon. |
