Taylor Swift and Dave Grohl just ignited a feud over playing live on their tours

This escalated.

Here we go. Dave Grohl started it and it appears Taylor Swift has responded … and both of them did it on stage at one of their shows.

Let’s explain: during a recent Foo Fighters show, Grohl said, “You don’t want to suffer the wrath of Taylor Swift,” before diving in and talking about how their tour is called the “Errors Tour.”

“That’s because we actually play live,” he said. Barbs thrown.

Seems like Swift caught wind of it, because she addressed the Eras Tour in London crowd by thanking her band members and crew, adding, “My band who’s gonna be playing live for you for three-and-a-half hours tonight, they deserve this so much.”

5 Super Bowl halftime performers we’d like to see someday, including Taylor Swift

Our list of Super Bowl halftime show performers we’re hoping take the stage at some point.

With Usher set to take the stage for the 2024 Super Bowl halftime show in Las Vegas on Sunday, it’s worth looking at the musical acts we’d love to see in the future.

Ranging from pop stars to throwback specials, we’ve picked five halftime show ideas that would have us very intrigued to tune in during the game break.

While one of these picks is obviously one of the most popular halftime show performances people hope to see (we’ll let you guess), all of these would be great picks to entertain us on Super Bowl Sunday.

Taylor Hawkins’ teenage son played an emotional ‘My Hero’ tribute with Foo Fighters

This was incredible.

In their first performance since the death of drummer Taylor Hawkins, Foo Fighters were joined by celebrities and musical guests in London Saturday to pay tribute to their bandmate and friend.

“Tonight we’ve gathered here to celebrate the life, the music, and the love of our dear friend, our bandmate, our brother, Taylor Hawkins,” Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl told the crowd at the start of the show. “For those of you who knew him personally, you knew that nobody else could make you smile or laugh or dance or sing like he could. For those of you who admired him from afar, I’m sure you’ve all felt the same thing.”

Though the tribute show was packed with superstar guests, it was Hawkins’ teenage son, Shane, who delivered one of the most stirring moments of the night as he joined his late father’s band onstage for a powerful performance of “My Hero”.

I’m crying, you’re crying, we’re all crying.

Dave Chappelle singing Radiohead’s ‘Creep’ with the Foo Fighters at MSG is pretty great

This really happened.

Well that’s a headline I didn’t expect to write in my life but I’m glad I got the chance to do it because this is actually something that happened in real life – the great Dave Chappelle joined the Foo Fighters at a sold out Madison Square Garden and sang Radiohead’s legendary song Creep.

The Foo Fighters reopened MSG last night to concerts for the first time since the pandemic started. Fans had to show their vaccination cards before entering and everything went really well. Science rules and live music is coming back, which is awesome.

Check out this great video of Chappelle’s performance. There’s some bad language in the song so run for the hills if you don’t like that stuff.

Too fun.
