You post on the Foo board? I used to, but I stopped last year because I was bombarded with homework. I could always start now, but.... I don't know, I'll feel like such a n00b again, cause I had to get off at 50 posts or something. =/
Yeah I know, I envy Jill, whenever she says stuff like, "Dave told me that he doesn't want you guys discussing your personal lives" or something. It makes me frown 
I don't post too much but here and there wheneverI feel I have valuable input to add. It's a completely different world than the Green Day board. IT's a good board to go to learn stuff about the band since so many people personally know them and the Foo are more of an adult band then 13 yearolds like Green Day.
AH Jill. I envy her too. And Tym flgjfdgjd and there was someone I was talking to for a bit the Ruthann one who told me about Chris being an asshole. She knows them too. ARGH. That's what I hate about being so young and loving bands like these  I can only hope that when I'm older, I'll be able to either be in a band or befriend a band. I'd love to do that.
I'm elanab27 on the Fooboard 
Yeah, it's COMPLETELY different. I'm actually debating whether I want to go on again, I just hate being a n00b all over again, you know? Fucking Fresh Fighter-ness. And, back when I was 13 when I first posted, I don't know... I wasn't as spontaneous or funny as I am now, I was just kind of.... WTF.
I was... Funky Platypus. Big surpriser, huh? |

You can't be a teenie and be like I LOVE TAYLOR over there. I wish the Foo still posted there  I was too late  But whatever. Somehow I've gotten like 600 posts. Not sure how really. I posted a lot on the equipment forum when I was trying to get help for my amp and then I've posted here and there randomly.  |

No, I wasn't like that. Far from. I was just...  Cause when you FIRST sign onto the Foo board, obviously you don't know that certain members have quirks about them, like Pirate Thom, perfect example. That's all, I was really confused, it took about 49 posts for me to kind of understand everyone... kind of....
oh noez we're on page 200! Le gasp. |

Yeah. I was afraid to post on the Equipment forum becase I had been watching them for a while and they were dicks. But then someone realized that they should be nicer to newbs and I went in and seized my moment  They were all really really nice and helped A LOT. I still feel nervous posting there haha. |

Now that I think about it, Prince's performance of Best of You was... meh. I don't think the Foos are the type to get offended over a cover.
I can't decide if Dave was like  or  when he saw it. Probably the first, I mean... its PRINCE and he fucking looks up to the man! It would be a huge honor, regardless of the sound, you know? |

Yeah... I see your point. The whole performance still made me cringe, but that's just me. |

Haha. he made it a poppier thing. I'm not sure if I like it or not. I'm leaning towards not. I still don't like the sogn to start with anyways.
Plus they've covered Prince numerous times and they should be honored. It's PRINCE. I mean it's not too big if a deal but still. I wish they didn't have the dancers. I was hoping that one of them would slip and fall hahaha. That would make it something to remember. |

Dave Grohl Gives Thumbs Up To Prince
Purple Rain Indeed
A little monsoon wasn't about to stop Prince from bringing the Super Bowl (and it's 93 million viewers) to its knees...
After a sad streak of classic-rock geezers, wacky mash-ups (hello, Aerosmith and Britney!), and one errant breast, Prince finally brought some sexy back to the Super Bowl halftime show on Sunday with a performance that had roughly 93.2 million viewers cheering — and you can blame it on the rain. The sight of the 48-year-old singer's blazing onstage performance in a near-monsoon ''gave an ethereal feeling to the whole set,'' says Don Mischer, who exec produced the show with Ricky Kirshner and Glenn Weiss. ''What we feared would be a liability actually strengthened his performance.''
The subsequent buzz — and news that Prince had covered the Foo Fighters' recent hit ''Best of You'' — prompted lead singer Dave Grohl to seek out the show on YouTube the next day.
"Having been a massive Prince fan my whole life, I was flattered beyond words," says Grohl. "What an honor to be covered by one of your heroes!"
But let's get back to that downpour. How in the world did Prince avoid becoming a small fry on that slick stage? Some dangerous off-camera heroics helped, for one: After an electric cable was accidentally severed moments before the show, a stage hand channeled a scene straight out of Back to the Future by manually inserting the exposed copper wires into an outlet and holding them in place for the duration of the nearly 12-minute show. It's a wonder he wasn't injured, which is why Mischer says he wants to find out the guy's identity, because ''I think I should give him a medal.'' (Better yet, maybe a trip to Aruba?)
Whether Prince — who's currently performing a weekend show at Las Vegas' Rio Hotel — was electric enough to continue capitalizing on his recent career upswing remains to be seen. (In one promising development, his 2001 greatest hits album has already zoomed to No. 10 on iTunes' best-selling albums chart.) But Kawan ''KP'' Prather, the executive V.P. and head of A&R at Sony BMG's urban music division who helped broker the deal to release Prince's 2004 platinum album Musicology, says that in the end it was the Super Bowl that needed His Purple One's magic touch, not the other way around.
"Prince has enough hits to be able to walk out onstage with a guitar and kill everywhere he goes," says Prather. "He could do that in an airport."
