On saturday night, Foo Fighters performed at London Stadium for the second night in a row as part of their Everything or Nothing at All Tour. About 20 miles away, on the other side of the city, Taylor Swift took the stage at Wembley Stadium for the second of three consecutive performances on the Eras Tour. There isn’t much overlap in the music these acts make or the audiences who attend their shows, but comments from Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl seemingly nodding to Swift have brought them into each other’s orbit.
“I tell you, man, you don’t want to suffer the wrath of Taylor Swift,” Grohl said onstage on Saturday after the audience started booing in response to him noting that the singer also had a show in the city that night. “We like to call our tour the ‘Errors Tour.’ We’ve had more than a few eras, and more than a few fucking errors as well. Just a couple. That’s because we actually play live. What? Just saying. You guys like raw, live rock & roll music, right? You came to the right fucking place.”
On Sunday, during her third night at Wembley Stadium, Swift seemed to indirectly address the rock legend’s comments, noting: “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. And so does every one of my fellow performers. And you just gave that to us so generously; we will never forget it.”
This weekend’s three shows were only a section of performances Swift has planned for London. The singer will return to the famed venue in August for five shows. She closed out the initial stretch with a special onstage appearance from her boyfriend Travis Kelce, while Paul McCartney danced with enthused pop fans in the audience. In comparison, Grohl’s comments don’t rank all that high on a list of the weekend’s events.
