Boy, and I thought sportswriters were fickle with their media room spreads. Check out what the Foo Fighters require backstage:

I read a crazy one a few years back, don't remember who for...although, it was more snotty and demanding. They at least were humorous about it.

I am actually desperate today.

They say...people will resort to saying things they know aren't true when they are desperate.

And you have on cue demonstrated what I have hallucinated from day one in regards to you.

I actually created Fergie in part to attack you Crit without you knowing it was me. Some of your takes were so lame that I almost came at you as myself a few time...

I remember during Van Halen's heydey that there had to be a bowl of thousands of M&M's (don't remember the exact number), and there could not be one brown one in the bowl. Evidently, Eddie slipped on a brown M&M on stage and hurt himself and ever since then the brown ones are out.

Generally, the Foos have a good reputation.
I remember seeing them at Edgefest (10 years ago, already) and watching Dave Grohl stop a song to chew out some idiot in the audience who'd ripped a girl's top off for the purpose of gaining unwanted access.
Grohl gave the girl his shirt, brought her up onstage and let her watch the rest of the set stageside.

"Perhaps the worst thing that can happen is to reach into the refrigerator and come out with something that you cannot identify at all. You literally do not know what it is. Could be meat, could be cake. Usually, at a time like that, I'll bluff. "Honey, is this good?" "Well, what is it?" "I don't know. I've never seen anything like it. It looks like...meatcake!" "Well, smell it." (snort, sniff) "It has absolutely no smell whatsoever!" "It's good! Put it back! Somebody is saving it. It'll turn up in something." Thats what frightens me. That someone will consider it a challenge and use it just because it's in there." -- George Carlin
