True Dedication - Dave Grohl


Arroz con Panther

Recommended Posts

You may not be a fan of the Foo Fighters, but you have to give some respect to Dave Grohl.  He broke his leg yesterday during the second song of a concert, went to the back to get fixed up, then came back out and finished the concert.  A true badass.  I am now a huge fan and, hell, I may go out and buy some Foo Fighter music today just because of this.

Two songs into the band's show at Ullevi stadium, Grohl seemed to have miscalculated a jump onto a ramp, falling instead into the security pit. "I think I just broke my leg," he announced to the crowd while lying on the ground, as captured by a fan video. "I think I really broke my leg!"

 

About an hour later, Grohl returned to the stage on a stretcher, with the assistance of two medics. They set him down on a chair, from which he proceeded to rock for another two-and-a-half hours.

i've got to say that actually teared me up a little bit for some reason. as a former performer, i loved seeing that dedication. but as a long time grohl fan i love seeing him still kicking it and i can't believe that it's been going on for over 20 years now. that's unreal.

also it's hard for me to think about the amount of fight in him compared to cobain.(i was a nirvana fan, btw, and covered a lot of their material back in the day) cobain wasn't built to endure. grohl undoubtedly was. it's fun to watch him keep going and have so much fun with it.

​Agree completely; I got chills when he came back on stage...in a stretcher nonetheless.  I definitely want to go see him if they roll through Charlotte or the surrounding area.

He broke his leg bc they got Royal Blood to open for them this summer. The anount of rock from EB shattered his bones. That was cool to finish a concert. I went to see a concert guy showed up two hrs late and sang his hit song said goodnight and left. Asheville was in near hippie riot.

Still haven't figured out how to post yt yet. Help for pie.

Something from Nothing might be the best rock song of the 21st century.

​Going to try this out.  I was struggling with it earlier.  All of the sudden it worked for me and I don't know how it happened.

Edit: Okay, this is going to blow your mind.  Apparently, you just paste the link into the post!  It might take a minute to actually realize it's a YT link, but it will load eventually.  I'm posting from the web, not the app.

    • it gets really weird.  But you got a straight shot down to Columbia and I guess straight up to VA if you are the Panthers.   I would assume the western mountains and western NC/SC ends up drawing a line and boxing them out of that area.    
    • Here is how I do it--consider that most teams improve (at least on paper) each year: QB:  Can we say we improved here?  Bryce is trending up and we got him 3 weapons and no more protection.  WASH RB:  Adding Dowdy and Eteinne is a pretty significant upgrade.  UPGRADE TE: Adding a large TE with good hands and initial quickness over Thomas.  Tremble and Sanders should improve.   UPGRADE. OT: Ickey is improving each season and Moton (we hope) will be healed up and ready to go.  WASH OG:  No changes WASH C  : No changes WASH WR: Added the best WR in the draft, one that other teams tried to trade up to get.  Added Horn, and the Colorado WRs were scary good (making Shedeur look good).  XL and Coker will improve.  Lots to like.  UPGRADE In my view, we needed to upgrade WR, TE, and RB.  We did.  I am guessing that C and OT are on the table to be upgraded in 2026. Edge:  Nic and Princely replace Barno and Johnson and join Clowney, Wonnum, and Jones.  Strong room.  Biggest Need.  UPGRADE DL:  We get Brown back, so upgrade without doing another thing.  Wharton, Brown III are both upgrades.  Cam Jackson as a rookie NT---depth and size we did not have.  UPGRADE LB:  We added Rozenboom in free agency, and he was a decent addition.  I think we will add an UDFA.  I think our LB play will improve with better edge, DL, and S play.  SLIGHT UPGRADE CB: Horn and Jackson are back, both following their best seasons.  We added a CB (Devonshire) off the waiver wire and there are a few UDFAs who could actually make the team.  WASH S: Ransom and Moehrig will probably start, with Richardson and (maybe Nick Scott) as depth.  I think we are going to like these Safeties. UPGRADE We had desperate needs for Edge players, IDL, and Safeties.  We upgraded them all.  I am not happy with the ILB situation or CB depth. Special Teams:  Too early to tell. BASICALLY, ON OFFENSE WE UPGRADED WEAPONS IN 3 AREAS WITH 4 PLAYERS.  THE OL IS UNCHANGED. ON DEFENSE, WE UPGRADED DE, NT EDGE, AND S--4 AREAS WITH 4 DRAFT PICKS (edge, edge, safety, and nose) and  5 FREE AGENTS (nose, defensive end/DT, edge, corner, safety)  THAT IS A HUGE OVERHAUL, with starters at DE (2), NT, OLB Edge, and Safety--a total of 6 of 11 players who did not play last season (including D. Brown). We won 5 games last season.  I think we can win 8.5 if all goes well.
    • Thought it was a great draft overall. Only thing I probably would have preferred was Billy Bowman and Malachi Moore in the 4th. Wanted Tez, but Horn is a similar receiver type so good with it if they think he's a better fit.
