 Age: 34 Gender: Female Posts: 26154 | September 9th, 2007 at 05:32pm Foos rehearsing with System of a Down's Serj Tankian:

SQUEE.
Check this out: VMA's might not be as horrible as expected
LAS VEGAS — If you're wondering what tricks the Foo Fighters have up their collective sleeve for Sunday night's MTV Video Music Awards performance, let's just say you'd be foolish to miss it. (Check out photos of the Foo Fighters rehearsing for Sunday's VMAs with Serj Tankian.)
During the band's two-plus-hour rehearsal Saturday night (September  inside the Palms Casino Resort's Hot Pink Suite, the band jammed vigorously with a veritable who's who of rock and roll: Gnarls Barkley mastermind Cee-Lo, Queens of the Stone Age mainman (and avid poker player) Josh Homme, System of a Down's Serj Tankian and the one, the only, the legendary Motörhead frontman Lemmy Kilmister, who arrived sporting tight black pants, black boots, a black leather jacket and a scowl.
The Dave Grohl-led rockers will also invite QOTSA multi-instrumentalist Troy Van Leeuwen, the Eagles of Death Metal's Brian "Big Hands" O'Connor and Jesse "The Devil" Hughes (who, according to Homme, is the proud owner of "the world's greatest mustache, second only to Tom Selleck"  , and Atlanta metallers Mastodon, who'll join the band for an epic rendition of Led Zeppelin's "Kashmir" (see "MTV VMA Race Is On: Justin Timberlake, Beyonce Lead Nominations"  .
Needless to say, the Foos set is going to be a tough one to top.
Tankian will also join the band Sunday night for a cover of the Dead Kennedys' "Holiday in Cambodia," while the gravelly throated Kilmister will handle lead vocals on two songs. That includes "Shake Your Blood" by Grohl side project Probot — Grohl will tackle drumming duties for that track, as he did on the studio version, which also featured Lemmy. They'll also perform a cover of Motörhead's "Overkill."
At one point during the relaxed and intimate rehearsal, Kilmister — whose four-string bass bears the words "Born to Lose, Out to Lunch" — taunted Foos guitarist Chris Shiflett for wearing earplugs. One couldn't help but feel like a fly on the wall in some basement where a group of old friends had gathered for a good-hearted jam session.
Grohl, who gnawed on the same piece of gum for the entire warm-up session, will stay behind the kit for a rendition of the Queens of the Stone Age's "I Wanna Make It Wit Chu." Grohl will of course be joined by Homme, Van Leeuwen, O'Connor and Cee-Lo, who is set to sing — but needs to learn the song's lyrics. The rapper had to refer to a lyrics sheet during the rehearsal but assured Homme he'd get them memorized before Sunday evening: "Don't worry, Joshua," Cee-Lo said with a wink and a smile.
Cee-Lo will inject some much-needed soul into one cover the Foos have become notorious for playing during their live shows: Prince's "Darling Nikki" (see "Foo Fighters 'Have No Idea' Why Prince Covered Their Song At Super Bowl"  . After the boys ran through the song for the very first time, Cee-Lo — who had worked up a skull-covering sweat — and Grohl exchanged knowing grins. The cover was magic.
"That was sexy," Cee-Lo said to Grohl. And yes, it was certainly that. |

ahem. [/history moment] They made a medley of Surrender and Bastards of Young.  It sucked, but it was genius.
Yeah, well it's either I buy it from iTunes or Best Buy. Both huge businesses, doesn't really make a difference at this point. I'm getting a new iPod today too, so they're getting money for that.  |

OOO. True. Ugh whatever. I'm just sick of all these stupid big businesses. I miss the days of little independent stores. They were talking in the RS about how people are saying itunes is getting too much power but noone can really do anything about it since everyone's so dependent on it.
ERGH. |

I certainly can't be arsed, but I do really want to see the Foos. Especially if Josh is going to be there  What are they doing playing at the VMAs in the first place, though? They only just released their first video in years.  |

Josh Homme is pretty fucking badass in the dark mysterious way. I need to get into QOTSA more. I have Sick, Sick, Sick. That's a good song. But I haven't been able to get into their other stuff. |
