Foo Fighters: Live @ Conseco July 23, 2008

It’s been 8 years since the Foo Fighters rocked Indianapolis and they made sure not to let their fans down on their Echoes, Silence, Patience and Grace tour last night. From the opening notes of Let It Die to the final scream of Best of You, the Foo Fighters filled The Conseco Fieldhouse with non-stop energy through heart pounding drums and Grohl’s patented screams. Their incredibly loud set list included hits Learn To Fly, Pretender, Breakout, Monkey Wrench and All My Life. Halfway through the show, the band moved to a small stage towards the back of the arena to play a mini 5-song set of acoustic songs that included My Hero, Everlong and Cold Day in the Sun. The mini-set was a nice change of pace and gave fans in the back of the arena a close-up of the band. The highlight of the mini-set came when the crowd began singing My Hero back to Grohl at a deafening level.
After finishing the set with All My Life, the band exited stage right for a few moments before the video monitors showed their set list with songs that weren’t legible, letting fans know they had a few more songs to crank out. The encore included Generator, Best of You and a slowed down version of Big Me. The encore songs failed to produce the same energy and excitement of the first 15 songs, but Grohl fired everyone back up when he announced before Best of You that they were heading back to Virginia to start on their new album. Hopefully we won’t have to wait another 8 years to see Dave and the boys back in Indy.
