Haha I've been in an obsessive Foo phase for a few months now.

I dont wanna feel like I'm sucking up to him, but I admire Dave. It amazes me that he practically did the whole first album by himself with the help of one person. Its impressive. EVery instrument and vocals and solos.

I'm seeing them Aug 21 Retard I'm fucking excited.

And Taylor and Chris are quite goodlooking... if I may say so myself Fizz

And Nate is awesome haa. Can't leave him out.

Favorite song? or songs? THat's kinda hard I like a lot of songs.


I think my number one song that gets to me the most is Oh, George but then I have all those other songs I relaly,really like.

In no Order:

I'll Stick Around - it gets me energetic and shit. And I love Dave's voice in it.
Resolve - I love the verses and Dave's voice in this song.
Generator - the guitar part thingys. and the verses are awesome.
Stacked Actors - The intro is cool. And the chorus is amazing.
Hey, Johnny Park - Dave's voice. All I can say.
Alone + Easy Target - the lyrics is awesome and themusic is mesmerizing.
Big Me - I love the chords they use.
Breakout - I like the screaming
Friend of A Friend - I dunno, the whole thing about Kurt and Krist is sentimental.
DOA- Probably my favorite song for Dave's lyrics.

Okay - those are the main Foo songs I listen to. I've been mostly listening to Generator a lot. I love the whole talk box guitar thingy.

You like the same ones as me! OK heres my list:

Breakout-screaming definately! Fav song ever!
Alone + easy target- like the way the chorus is heavier than the verses, its a cool flowing song.
D.O.A.- One of the best of they're newest songs definately.
Times Like These- Just great basically.
Generator- Loving the roboty voice effect! Def my fav song after Breakout.
Wattershed- Kinda reminds me of a Nirvana song.
The One- No reason, just love it! The videos good too Wink
Cold Day In The Sun- Taylor does a good job on this song.
Have It All- Love the guitar in this song.
Everlong- Classic Foos!
Walking A Line- Screamy bit makes me hyper hehe

and yeah, I agree with you about the whole Dave thing, gotta admire him for the first album, when I first heard he done it practically by himself I was like woah Surprised he must have been busy lol. He is also an amazing drummer Wink

I love Taylor. He's such a cutie. And Chris is just kinda.. I dunno. There's something about him.. he's just really suave and I love his smirk Retard

I just downloaded the 24 Hours of Foo thing.. its the funniest thing.

Dave: After that massage.... ugh
Nate: You really don't like massages?
Dave: NO IT WAS TORTURE.
Nate: But its supposed to feel good.
Dave: No it hurts. They poke you and you feel pain.
Nate: But its good pain.

something like that. Its hilarious and Taylor looks adorable right after he wakes up in his Paul Frank PJs and his hair sticking up all over the place. Laughing


And I'm obsessed with Generator. I love the whole wah-wah thing. I keep walking around my house singing that and humming the guitar thing.

I like The One too. Its fun to sing along. I like the lyrics. I think I know how to play it on guitar.

I've been learning a lot of their songs on guitar. I dont think I know amny FULL songs but I can play parts too:

Friend of a Friend
I'll Stick Around - just the verse
DOA (Intro)
The One
Aurora - Chris'slittle guitar things in the intro
Big Me
Tired of You
Hey, Johnny Park
Everlong
Stacked ACtors- intro
Times Like These - intro


I think my fave to play is Big Me. Its really easy and I love the sound of the chords.
Stacked Actors is also fun and exciting.

Foo songs are really easy to learn once you get past Dave's weird chords.

Here you go: http://www.geocities.com/baileybaxter/24hof.html

Its a fucking huge file so I would suggest if you wanna keep it burning it to DVDs. It took up 5 DVDs for me but its worth it. About 4 GB.

Wow.
I forgot I made this thread. XD
Anyway..
My dad got to watch the whole 24 Hours of Foo while I was watching my cousin for the day. x|
And I can't put it on DVD or anything cause I have a shitty computer. I've tried many times..........

After the whole 49 seconds or whatever goes downa nd it says to Download Here or whatever. Right click the button (assuming you dont have a laptop) and go to Save Target As and find a folder to put it in and save it there. Up
