About Me

Quite possibly the greatest band ever, but what happens when Dave Grohl steals your band name and ties you up in legal red tape for years? Alcoholism, minor flirtations with the occult and an unhealthy obsession with poorly produced children's albums. Also, the fans suffer.
Admittedly, we were more than happy to hang out by the pool in our thousand dollar bathing suits and extra wide moustaches, sipping 30 dollar bottles of Canadian beer. The fans however, wouldn't have it.
A petition was circulated via email, with the threat of ten years bad luck for anyone who dared to delete it. The threats worked. The petition came back with nearly two million names, most of whom have since contracted scalp cancer, so I guess there's no real guarantee as far as luck goes but at least we know the fans still care.
Anyway, we called our good friend and spirit advisor, Coach Greg Buffcoat and against his better judgement, decided to give it another go. So here we are again, the start of the end. The classic Ff lineup: Tom, Ken, Rick and Dave. Enjoy.
