FOO FIGHTERS!!!!



Yes peeps, the time has finally come. This last weekend Lauren and I thought we'd take a quick drive over to Milton Keynes to visit the Bowl to see..... The Foo Fighters!



From past experience I knew that the car park is a nightmare so I thought ahead and booked us a nice room in a hotel in Stevenage. The hotel was nice and the room served its purpose so it was defo a good idea.

On our way to Stevenage we noticed this:
There's actually a place called "Nasty" (it's top right)

Anyways, on our journey we thought we'd stop off for a bite to eat. So we ended up finding this leisure park which looked like an industrial estate at first but luckily we found a Chitquito restaurant, YUM!

But as we got out of the car we were greeted by this:

I did have a video of it moving and dancing but it wouldn't load :-(

After eating we thought it a good idea to get to our hotel and set up camp and then make our way to the venue.
As expected, traffic was a nightmare! But we followed the signs and successfully found the car park... Well... A car park. This car park ended up being a good 20min walk to the venue!

Still, we got there and found a nice little spot on the hill and got comfortable. The Foo had a band called Tame Impala supporting first followed by Death Cab for Cutie and then Biffy Clyro and to be honest I didn't care much for Tame Impala or Death Cab but Biffy were AMAZING!!

Here's a taste of what you missed out on:




Then came the Foo:





What a fab gig!! Here is the set list:


Oh and yes, that's Roger Taylor from Queen and Alice Cooper!!! How cool!

A mind blowing experience was had by all

Grohl was kind enough to finish up with one of mine and Laurens favourite songs:


Sorry, once again it should be a video but it wouldn't load on here! Grr!
