How stupid can you be to believe that FFers means Foo Fighters?

It's the Reading Festival. I don't know if you've ever been, but it aint exactly the meeting of the Berkshire chapter of MENSA.

It's mayhem every year. Possibly the crappest festival I've ever been to.

somewhat deserves the dumbass tag, but how can you? Everyone heard of the FFer's now. So, mission accomplished I suppose...

but now There MUST be a video of this. I want to see that. And the band afterwards. I want to watch that, bad

Only I still have no desire to go see them. I just already hate them.

Ummmmmm.... Where does it say that the FFers said they were the Foo Fighters? I must have missed that part.

I can happily say I got my share of bottles at these worthless idiots. The story got out that it "might" be the Foo Fighters, but the band caught onto this and changed all their band info and pictures to that of the Foo Fighters. They totally deserved every bottle of piss, shoe and turd that came their way.

Ironically, the band Underground Railroad has this song on their site:

Procedural Texture: If you're going to pretend to be another band, at least do it well epically badly^

LMAO!!! The keyboards sounded like they had "college Ross" playing them.

/maybe played a little Miami Vice for and encore?

My band had (full) beer bottles thrown at them, so I'm getting a kick out of this article...
