Foo Fighters slam John McCain over use of song

Pookie · 10.12.2008, 04:14 PM

They should be grateful that anybody's interested in their soft rock drivel

atsonicpark · 10.12.2008, 04:23 PM

hahaha.

Isn't "right now" by Van Halen Obama's theme song? That's a much better soft rock song. Fuck McCain.

Derek · 10.12.2008, 04:42 PM

"Besides, as McCain's standing plummets in the polls, perhaps his campaign ought to change musical tacks. Rock music doesn't seem like the appropriate soundtrack to impending economic doom ... maybe free-jazz, doom metal or musique concrète. Surely Anthony Braxton or Sunn O))) could lend the campaign a few minutes of screeching, screaming noise?"

Hahaha, awesome!

atsonicpark · 10.12.2008, 05:02 PM

hahaha mccain coming onstage to sunn.

That's hilarious.

SuchFriendsAreDangerous · 10.12.2008, 09:12 PM

you know, they tried to kill Bob Marley and they shot Rita in the head because rival Jamaican politicians were playing tuff gong material at their rallies, and the rude boys mistook that for Marley supporting one party or another [because they both used the same tunes, confusing many people]

so dave grohl should consider himself lucky, though I wonder how John McCain feels about making a song about Kurt Cobain's tragic end his own?

batreleaser · 10.12.2008, 09:25 PM

yeah, obama should use mc5 for his song, "i wanna see some revolution out there!", "kick out the jams motherfucker!", and shit like that. thatd be so awesome. you figure hes god lightning bolt backing his shit, why not have something like the mc5 as the song for his campaign.

SuchFriendsAreDangerous · 10.12.2008, 09:53 PM

Obama should play

"I'm affraid of Americans.."

Ironic. Dave Grohl dissing one of the few people I loathe more than Dave Grohl... I'm not sure what to feel.

ZEROpumpkins · 10.13.2008, 01:57 AM

For the record, I'd like to state that the Foo Fighter's first album (more or less a Dave solo album) is awesome.

_slavo_ · 10.13.2008, 02:05 AM

*wind whistling*

I'm sure noone heard what you just said, ZeroPumpkins.

ZEROpumpkins · 10.13.2008, 02:20 AM

There was a thread started like two years ago about how good it was.

steve newman · 10.13.2008, 03:53 AM

i can't see associating myself with dave grohl as being positive.

ZEROpumpkins · 10.13.2008, 04:23 AM

Whether or not you appreciate Dave's music, he's a really fuckin' nice guy, you have to admit.

auto-aim · 10.13.2008, 07:39 AM

nah, he's a right bastard. I'm sure everyone will agree.

The best soft rock is still soft rock.

akprodr · 10.13.2008, 07:53 AM

I remember hearing that they actually do not fight foo.

But seriously, copyright infringement is copyright infringement.

Dave Grohl was alright until he grew that stupid facial hair.

auto-aim · 10.13.2008, 08:58 AM

No offense, bro, but this could be why you have trouble with girls. I'm just saying; look into that connection.
