they have funny videos and they are competent on their instruments, but they just sound like generic 70's rock music to me.

Other than the fact that I got to see them free at a Hollywood Club (when they showed up and asked to play and therefore bumped the band I was going to see back to 9:30, so then I didn't get to see Duran Duran at the universal Ampitheatre at 10:00 PM which I had PAID for)...I really have no opinion on the Foo Fighters..

The Foos played a release party for their new disc out here in LA a few weeks ago. One of the best rock shows I've ever seen. Tore it up for over two hours, and tickets were only $20!!! Unheard of! Not to mention they literally tore Wembley Stadium apart at Live Earth this Summer... saw it with my own eyes. Amazing performance.

they have one of the best keyboard players out there at the moment.. i´m a bit sad to say that Rami Jaffee left the Wallflowers for the Foo Fighters.. (i don´t care what everyone says, i love the Wallflowers, i think they´re underrated. and i´m going to miss rami!)

I absolutely loved their music until after There Is Nothing Left To Lose. Still do. I don't know what happened to them- their new stuff is consistently horrible. So sad.

I love the Foo Fighters and imo are still one of the biggest and certainly one of the best bands around. The energy at their live shows is amazing.

They are totally unremarkable, it's hard to feel strongly either way about them.

Someone should create a poll, Which band is the biggest rock band, Foo Fighters or Red Hot Chili Peppers? :p

Big fan of the Peppers- Constantly changing- constantly creating insane music- constantly a great band.
