Foo Fighters at HOB in NOLA


Same. Was a great show. I believe tickets went on sale 24 hours before the show and it was a warmup concert before their tour. Was a last minute show if my memory is correct. At one point Grohl was standing on top of the side bar, opening Budweisers and pouring them into the crowds’ mouths. I’m not a huge Foo Fighters fan, but that was a great show, especially considering the venue.

That sounds like the October 2007 show when Dave and Chris did the “dueling banjo” thing while standing on opposite bars.

That was the first time I ever saw them and I was fortunate to see them again at the same place in 2014 for the Sonic Highways thing.

A great moment for sure....I remember it like it was yesterday. Can't believe it was that long ago.
