The Foo Fighters was making a stop at Zia this morning. Despite the hectic day we already had planned out, we had to make a trip down there, despite not really having the time to spare.

Photobox ImagePretty cool once we got down there. Last night was the first time I'd heard White Limo, or even knew that there was a new album coming out. I was somewhat surprised by just how aggressive the vocals in that were. With that said, it didn't take long listening to the new album in the parking lot at Zia's to realize that it's the exception to the rule, and the rest of the album is the typical Foo Fighter's awesomeness that they constantly deliver. The limo only just left California yesterday, with Tempe being one of it's first stops, so it was also pretty being one of the first people (relatively speaking) to hear the record.

Photobox ImageThe limo itself was pretty damn cool. And for all extents and purposes is the first time I've sat in a limo, let alone a 1970's Cadillac that the Foo Fighter's just shot a music video in.I've sat in a limo.

Midway through, a young guy pulled up, walked through the parking lot through the crowd, went into Zia and re-appeared with a Foo Fighter's CD. Which he them proceeded to public destroy in front of everyone, proclaiming that the Foo Fighter's sucked. Funnily enough, his damnation of the band was barely audible over the album being blasted from the limo. The crowning moment of this display, was when he then proceeded to pick up the pieces of the broken, CD, jewel case and ripped up sleeve, as not to get into trouble. So comical. Nothing accents a pseudo bad ass defiant display is cleaning up after yourself!

Of course, it defies logic (at least to me and Katie) how it's even possible to despise the Foo Fighter'sl enough to drive down to Zia. spend your money on what looked to be a double CD (admittedly at Zia it could have been used) and destroy it. Some bands sure, but Foo Fighter's? Whether you're into them or not, there isn't much there to really hate. But I guess there was for this guy.

Anyways, it was pretty cool ass. Although we didn't plan to, we ended up staying to hear the album in it's entirety, which sounds break good. And on top of everything else, there was a So Long Wong's t-shirt sighting. Cool!
