Dave Grohl Takes Jab At Taylor Swift During Foo Fighters’ London Show: “We Actually Play Live”
Dave Grohl and his band Foo Fighters had a concert at London Stadium on Saturday night as Taylor Swift performed Night 2 of the Eras Tour at Wembley Stadium.
During his performance, Grohl referenced Swift taking a jab at the “Fortnight” singer, saying, “I tell you, man, you don’t want to suffer the wrath of Taylor Swift.”
“So we like to call our tour the Errors Tour. We’ve had more than a few eras, and more than a few f***ing errors as well. Just a couple,” Grohl added.
The Foo Fighters star then implied that Swift doesn’t perform live, saying, “That’s because we actually play live. What? Just saying. You guys like raw, live rock ‘n’ roll music, right? You came to the right f***ing place.”
Although Grohl had positive things to say about Swift in the past, some fans think he’s now taking aim at the singer after his 17-year-old daughter was harassed by Swifties after she criticized Swift on social media for flying private.
Swift seemingly rebutted Grohl’s claims when, on Night 3 of her London shows, she took a moment to acknowledge her live performers.
“Every one of my band members, every single one of our crew, my band who’s gonna be playing live for you for 3.5 hours tonight, they deserve this so much,” Swift said. And so does every one of my fellow performers. And you just gave that to us so generously, we will never forget it.”
Swift played three nights in a row at Wembley Stadium in London. After the three shows, the singer will travel to Dublin, Ireland, where she will perform for three nights starting June 28. After her Ireland stop, Swift will play in Amsterdam starting on July 4, with stops in Switzerland, Germany, and Italy afterward.
On August 15, Swift will return to London’s Wembley Stadium to play five more nights. The singer will return stateside on October 18, playing three consecutive nights at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida.
