My Foo Fighters gigograpy

On Saturday I saw the Foo Fighters at the National Bowl in Milton Keynes.

They were great as they always are and it was a perfect stadium rock show from one of the world's best live bands - a band I've become a custom to seeing, a band I've seen more than any other I think!

After the show I dug out the text file I keep listing every Foo Fighters show I've been to - this was number 12 in 16 years, which isn't bad going.

This Year's Gigs: 2007

This year I have been lucky enough to see the following people play live... Bloc Party Biffy Clyro Chris Cornell The Deciphers Doug Walker The Feeling Foo Fighters Idlewild Incubus Jack McManus Kings Of Leon Maximo Park Mute Math Now It's Overhead Pearl Jam The Police Serj Tankian The Shins I must have see The Deciphers around 10 times and Biffy twice along with Idlewild a couple of times. Not my busiest gig year but a great one non the less, if only because I got to see Pearl Jam & the Foo Fighters again and I got to see a band I'd dreamed of seeing and never thought I'd see - The Police! Roll on 2008!
