Yes, definitely! ... Does he drum on every song? ... Not so sure.

“… the Rheostatics have had a number of drummers, including one early on who quit after the rest of the band told him his grandmother’s cookies were pathetically bad. ”

Nice - thanks Lady Marmalad3!

Dave drummed on the entire new album:

Solid 3.5/5 stars. It’s the Foo Fighters. You know what you’re going to get, for the most part, but it’s better than I thought it’d be. Hearing Voices is a fantastic song (however, not a typical Foo Fighters song). Last 3 songs seem to be a response to Taylor’s death (other songs hint at this too).

Today the new album came out, it is really good. And tonight they play Rock Am Ring, live streamed on RTL+

Liking the new album - well worth a stream (vinyl still in the post)

I was very hopeful when Rescued came out this could be their first great album since Wasting Light.

I was hopeful lol. Oh well, Dave's made a bunch of great music that has entertained me to last a lifetime. But not a full album in a decade I've cared about.

I think it’s their best LP since Wasting Light. After 2 listens, it is a well-written, excellently produced rock album. Give me this any day over Maneskin, Wet Leg, or any other flavor of the month. This is rock. High energy, no frills, no relying on some pretentious visual image.

I put Sonic Highways above Wasting Light, as well as the Sound City collab. 2 listens so far on the new one ... eh, it's ok, maybe I'll like it more after another couple.

I hear ya. It’s subjective, as always. Speaking of Sonic Highways, I was at The Ryman on that tour. They debuted Congregation that night (as it was written in Nashville). $25 tickets, I believe. Halloween, King Diamond face paint, Zac Brown joining the band for War Pigs. And Tony Joe White of Polk Salad Annie fame. So awesome.

Rescued and Under You I thought were good songs on the new Foo Fighters record. It was steep drop from there, though HER I guess made The Glass not as bad on SNL. Rescued seemed like it might be a decent record, and ultimately being about as forgettable as the last decade of releases from them.

To each their own, obviously, but I think it’s clearly their best album since Wasting Light.

Violet Grohl was the featured guest on David Bowie's long pianist Mike Garson's residency at the tiny Sun Rose (capacity 120) tonight but Dave dueted with her on Show Me How and played drums on Heart Shaped Box.

She was great. If she wants to have a music career she has to be able to touch people who don't know or care who her father is and she is definitely capable of that.
