We can’t imagine that Dave Grohl’s leg is in very good shape but that’s not going to stop him from resuming the Foo Fighters tour on July 4.
Grohl fell from the stage on June 12 during the second song of a show in Gothenburg, Sweden, fracturing his leg. After a short time, he returned to the stage and played the rest of the show while sitting in a chair, a paramedic holding the break together while an air cast was brought in from a local hospital.
Upon doctor’s advice, the band cancelled the rest of their European tour, including a headlining spot at Glastonbury; however, it’s hard to believe that physicians are behind Grohl’s return to the stage less than a month later.
Someone in the organization, or possibly Grohl himself, tweeted that the next show was on Monday:
The message also appears on the front of their official website.
Here’s hoping that all is well and Grohl knows what he is doing because the band has a heavy touring schedule right through November:
