Taylor Swift praised her band during her concert in response to Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl’s criticism that the singer doesn’t perform live.
The Foo Fighters were performing in London on Saturday night when Grohl made the remarks by 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 – – king errors as well. Just a couple," he continued. "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 – – king place," Grohl added in a video that trended on social media.

On the third night of Swift’s Eras Tour concert at Wembley Stadium in London on Sunday, Swift seemed to clap back at Grohl’s comments saying in a video clip "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."
Grohl’s comments were a bit surprising given that he’s praised Swift in the past.
In 2015, Grohl dedicated the Foo Fighters song "Congregation" to Swift at the BBC Radio Big 1 Weekend, Variety reported.
