Dave Grohl fears ‘wrath’ of Taylor Swift after gig jibe

Dave Grohl admitted he fears the “wrath of Taylor Swift” as he made a dig about her tour.

The Foo Fighters frontman performed at the London Stadium with his band on Saturday night (22.06.24) while Taylor was headlining at Wembley Stadium across town that evening as part of her ‘The Eras’ tour and Dave made a joke about the pop star to the audience.

He said: “We were joking about the Taylor Swift tour earlier. I know that she’s on her ‘Eras Tour’. I’m telling you man; you don’t want to suffer the wrath of Taylor Swift.

“So we like to call our tour the ‘Errors Tour’ because I feel like, we’ve had more than a few eras, and more than a few f****** errors as well. Just a couple. That’s because we actually play live. What?”

He then went on to add: “I’m just saying, you guys like raw, live rock ‘n’ roll music, right? You came to the right f****** place.”

However, Dave did indeed appear to incur Taylor’s “wrath” as she seemingly hit back at his comments the following night when she played her third gig at Wembley Stadium on Sunday (23.06.24) and gave a shout out to her band for “playing live” for the entire set.

She told the crowd: “What you just did is an unforgettable moment in not just my life, but every very single one of our crew. The band that’s going to be playing live for you for three and a half hours tonight.

“They deserve this so much and so does every one of my fellow performers, and you just gave that to us so generously. We’ll never forget it.”

The Foo Fighters continue their UK tour with shows at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on June 25 and at Villa Park in Birmingham on June 27.

Taylor’s tour will return to Wembley Stadium for tour more shows next month.
