Here's a link that will only be active for seven days if you want to listen to a
Zane Lowe (BBC) phone interview with Dave Grohl. The Dave interview starts at around 59 minutes in (just drag the cursor there in the media player). Or check out the
Dave Grohl Bootleg Interview version I found. Here are the highlights from
FooFightersArchive.com: - Zane Lowe caught up with Dave on the telephone to primarily plug some UK dates next Summer but that wasn’t all that was covered. So here are the points of interest:
- 2 nights at Milton Keyes Bowl on July 2nd & 3rd 2011. Support comes from Biffy Clyro, Jimmy Eat World & Death Cab For Cutie.
- The new album is “full on” thanks to Butch Vig keeping Dave to his promise it’d be the heaviest Foos album yet.
- 7 songs have been recorded with a possible 7 more to go.
- Bob Mould sings with Dave on ‘Dear Rosemary’.
- Krist Novoselic plays bass on a track.
They're also making a movie about the process (with a director and everything). In 2011 you "won't be able to get the Foo Fighters out of your hair" according to Dave. Did you catch that they only have seven songs recorded so far? I have a chance of
Beating Dave Grohl yet! In the interview, Dave
promises the album will be done by their July shows in England. July!? Phhhh. I plan on being done next month. At least with the recording part of it. Check back in a few days where I lay out my plan on how I'm going to do that.
Thanks for reading. You rock!
