Honestly, I feel pretty confident in the top 9, after that it's a fascinating crapshoot. Isn't it also funny how two of their biggest and most beloved songs came from an album that most of us Foon fans (and the band) enjoy the least for sound and song quality? I still think 'No Way Back' could/would/should have been a massive single had it been the 2nd IYH single and promoted more.
Rock on. Cheers. Go, Baseball and Go, Foos supporting humanity this evening with Kamala and friends!
It might. It was my introduction and certainly an important song for me, but I am not sure if it is as known/loved by fans that haven't been involved since the 1900s.
Hate to say it but ‘Wheels’ has been one of the biggest crowdpleasers during the last few shows I’ve been to.. Not a ‘hit’ per se but an important song for the new generation of fans.
And so damn excited! I remember after that gig I bumped into a mate in Euston station who was coming home from another gig and I just basically screamed in his face because I couldn’t do words 🤣🤣🤣
I’ve managed a few and have been extremely lucky in doing so. Dingwalls was my first so I’ll always love it, especially considering I was lucky enough to meet the band after for the first time. I was crying cause I couldn’t believe my luck that i was even there if memory serves 🤣 Dingwalls 2 I turned up with no ticket (do not recommend) and some kind fella on Christmas guest list let me go in with him, which was fucking mental.

Yessss!
It’s one of my favourites
Justice for Walking A Line ✊
This has had me thinking all weekend.
What are their 10 "biggest" hits? Not greatest.
My take:
1 The Pretender
2 All My Life
3 Everlong (most loved and longest loved, but not as meaningful to newer/younger fans.)
4 Best of You
5 Learn To Fly

Would monkey wrench feature on here?
Normal, Walk the Line, FFL, A320*, Butterflies, Spill, World, **Seda and If Ever are tracks that should have made their albums recording sessions.
Excluded the TCATS tracks as they ended up on the reissue.
*I know this was it's own session for Godzilla
** Those two felt more like TCATS vibes to me for some reason

I'd say it is more so than This is a call
You could be right. Those two, Rope and Big Me all seem to fit into that category.

All excellent 🥰
Hoping something for Halloween here to happen 🎃🦇
SEDA Is one of my all time favorites. I love how chill and laid back it sounds.
For me it's a mix of TNLTL laid-backness with a bit of ESP&G acoustic-ness.
@Sophie in the new email
Awesome! I was wondering if that was a boarder (I know no faces except a few 😅).
Nate's face tho! That's a fucking winner. Great picture Sophie!!
It brought me such joy seeing that! Such a lovely day / amazing show! Some of the best memories I have
mostly stories/images from UK.
Indeed it is me!
of all the photos I submitted that has to be the absolute worst one 🤣🤣🤣 still, what a surprise!
A lovely surprise!!! 🥰
I dunno, I have a lot of regret about not wearing any make up that day
I wore lots of eyeliner and by the end it was all over my face in the photos so it could’ve been worse! 😂
😂 if only I had this hindsight then
We were young and star struck! How were we to know?!
And so damn excited! I remember after that gig I bumped into a mate in Euston station who was coming home from another gig and I just basically screamed in his face because I couldn’t do words 🤣🤣🤣
The best! I love that.
I've never managed to get into one of the small shows. Also I've only met Chris and Taylor at their side shows.
stick with me, kid, i'll get you in

Totally this! I’ve been so l lucky meeting the band at tiny shows and not at big things.
I'm holding you to this 😅
