Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl appeared to take a jab at Taylor Swift at the band’s concert on Saturday night at London Stadium.
In addition to mentioning Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour was currently taking place in the stadium in London, Wembley Stadium, Grohl declared on the stage, “I tell you, man, you don’t want to suffer the wrath of Taylor Swift.”
He added: “So we like to refer to our tour as the “Errors Tour. We’ve experienced several erasures as well as several fucking errors too. A couple of them.”
Grohl said that Swift does not perform live in front of the crowd, saying “That’s because we play live. What? I’m just saying. You guys like raw, live rock ‘n’ roll music, right? You’ve found the right spot.”
Variety has contact Grohl’s representatives for comments.

Grohl has often praised Swift in the past, and even has dedicated the Foo Fighters track “Congregation” to the pop singer at The BBC Radio Big 1 Weekend in 2015.
“I’m completely obsessed. It’s possible that she’ll need an order of restraining because I’m obsessed with Swift,” Grohl said at the 2015 U.K. music festival. “To my opening group, Taylor Swift. Taylor along with The Swifts,” he added.
Swift is scheduled to play the final date of her London tour on Sunday evening in Wembley Stadium, though she will be back in August for five more dates before concluding the European phase of the Eras Tour.
In her first London concert on Friday night, Swift took a photo with Prince William who celebrated his 42nd birthday during the concert with the children George as well as Charlotte.
