FF has dorky little ballads.

I have no doubt that they do. I know I've listened to a Foo Fighters album, probably "That One Foo Fighters Album". But I know precious little else because nothing makes me want to.

There weren't any katanas though.

As long as Jimmy's good - I'm good. And Aux-In, listen to the song I just posted. I hear 70s, 80s, and 90s, perfectly blended together.

Chula, I'm serious in my dislike of Foo Fighters, but I'm just teasing on your like of them. If it speaks to you, it's all good.

It's just cool stuff to have on in the background while I'm working on the PC. I wouldn't sit in a recliner with the lights dimmed and headphones on listening to FF.

Close to the Edge on the other hand......

Just because you can't relate, doesn't make it bad.

I saw Queen play the Boston Garden in front of 18,000 frenzied fans on their News of the World tour in 1977, at the peak of their popularity in the US. I can still remember it vividly 40 years later. Incredibly amazing performance, lighting and effects like you wouldn't believe, and hearing Freddie Mercury in the flesh gave me goosebumps over, and over again. The dude was even better than what people say - both as a vocalists and a showman.

Absolute highlight: Bohemian Rhapsody.

During the acapella vocal section the band left the stage and the lights dimmed. The pre-recorded tape played while the stage filled with dry ice. Then BAM!!! Lights come up and May, Deacon, and Taylor are tearing up the heavy section while the crowd is going completely bonkers.

But where's Freddie? His part is coming up and he's not on stage yet. WTF?

Then, right on cue, he comes shooting straight up from out of the fog, center stage right up front and :

"So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye?
So you think you can love me and leave me to die?"

The delirious crowd somehow managed to reach another level of absolute frenzy, myself and my buds included. The high from the show lasted for hours. (and this was without acid or ecstacy - just pure adrenaline)

TL-DR

Just because you can't relate, doesn't make it bad.

"Just because you can't relate, doesn't make it bad."

Given that "bad" is a subjective term, it actually does.
