Serj Tankian and the Foo Fighters at Cox Arena










Took Cheryl to see the Foo Fighters. I was bummed we missed Against me but we got there and I could swear System of a Down was playing. I'm not a big fan of that band but as I got closer I realized it was the lead singer of System of a Down with his own band self titled for his own name Serj Tankian. It was actually a really great show and I liked it better than System myself.
The Foo Fighters were in phenomenal form as usual. I took Cheryl for our 3rd wedding anniversary during the Foo Fighters Acoustical tour a couple of years ago and I was very impressed by his ability to orchestrate so many great performers (strings, percussions, guitars, etc.). There was an acoustic set at the beginning of the second set which was great. Drum Solo, guitar solo, and the drummer sang a song. They played all of their hits and some hidden gems that aren't as well-played on the radio. Overall just an amazing show and well worth every penny. Cox Arena is a great venue to see a show. We were off to the side with a great view of the guitar techs, and the crew setting things up. Dave Grohl was all over the place getting the crowd fired up. Great time. I'll definitely do it again. I definitely need to get a better camera phone as you can see.
