After Kurt Cobain's death, ex-Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic was never heard from again. But drummer Dave Grohl managed to grow as a singer / guitarist with Foo Fighters into one of the most successful rock bands of the nineties. After ten years of success the band went in a different direction with the album In Your Honor (2004). In addition to a CD with familiar rock songs, the album consisted
… of an album with modest, acoustic songs. Skin And Bones is a concert recording of an acoustic performance in the tour that the band did, following the release of In Your Honor. It is a sitting concert, for the audience and for the musicians. Assisted by violinist Petra Haden, percussionist Drew Hester, keyboardist Rami Jaffee and guitarist Pat Smear, the band brings old and new repertoire to an enthusiastic audience. A nice and tastefully filmed introduction to the quiet side of these rockers. The DVD does not contain any extras. (MS)more
