Dave Grohl criticised Taylor Swift

Dave Grohl is the frontman and founder of the band Foo Fighters. The group was formed in 1995. They are known for songs such as "The Pretender", "Best of You", and "These Days". Previously, he played drums in the band Nirvana.

22 June, both Foo Fighters and Taylor Swift arrived in the United Kingdom. The artists performed concerts at London's stadiums - the singer at Wembley Stadium and the band at the Olympic Stadium. At a certain point during the performance, the Foo Fighters' frontman realised the coincidence: "I know that (Taylor Swift - ed.) is on the 'Eras Tour'. I'm telling you, man, you don't want to incur the wrath of Taylor Swift."

He then suggested that the singer uses a backing track: "That's why we like to call our tour the 'Errors Tour'. We've had more than a few eras and more than a few mistakes. Just a few. That's because we really play live. What? Just saying. You like raw, live rock 'n' roll music, right? You've come to the right place."

At the same time, there was festive fun at Wembley Stadium. None other than Sir Paul McCartney decided to join the dancing fans of Taylor Swift. The artist displayed great class. He proved that even being a music icon, one can have a great time.
