FOO Fighters frontman Dave Grohl triggered a war of words with Taylor Swift — suggesting she doesn’t perform live.

The so-called Nicest Man In Rock took a swipe at the Shake It Off singer as they both played stadium shows in London.

A mention of Taylor’s gig at Wembley was met with boos from the Foos crowd at the London Stadium, to which Dave, 55, said: “I tell you, man, you don’t want to suffer the wrath of Taylor Swift.”

Referring to her Eras tour, he went on: “So we like to call our tour the Errors Tour.

"We’ve had more than a few eras, and more than a few f***ing errors as well. Just a couple.

“That’s because we actually play live. What? Just saying.”

Taylor hit back on Sunday, telling her audience: “Every one of my band members, every single one of our crew, my band who’s gonna be playing live for you for 3½ hours tonight, they deserve this so much.”

It has been suggested ex-Nirvana drummer Dave took aim after daughter Violet was harassed by Swifties in January for criticising Taylor’s private jet use.
