In an interesting (and geeky) promotional event, Facebook will be hosting a streaming Foo Fighters concert tonight at 7PM PST. The event will be broadcast using Livestream’s technology and is being held to promote the band’s upcoming Greatest Hits album.
Whether you’re a fan of the band or not, you have to admit that this is pretty awesome. It’s crazy how far technology has come in such a short time. When Foo Fighter’s frontman Dave Grohl was playing drums in Nirvana, I’m pretty sure he didn’t envision reaching millions of fans through a streaming concert hosted by a social networking site…but that’s just conjecture.

No Foo Fighters love from rpad.tv readers? awwwwe.
i think it's pretty cool that it is happening, but I will probably be too busy to have time to sit down and watch this.
if the Red Hot Chili Peppers were doing this however I would have to drop everything to make time for that.
I'm not on Facebook, but I guess I could always use my wife's account to see it.
