AceShowbiz - Broken leg couldn't stop Dave Grohl's performance, but Mother Nature could. The rocker and his Foo Fighters bandmates ended up canceling their headlining set at the Festival d'ete de Quebec over the weekend due to severe weather.
Storm already raged when the group kicked off their show. "I don't care about that [the weather]. All I care about is you and to make sure you have a great time, so tonight we're gonna play a Foo Fighters show. You know what that is? The Foo Fighters like to play for a long time and we're gonna play all f**king night!" Grohl said while sitting on his throne in front of a crowd of 75,000 people.
Amid rain and thunder, the band managed to be on the stage for about 20 minutes and played four songs including "Everlong", "Monkey Wrench", "Learn to Fly" and "Something From Nothing" before stopping their gig when things got worse. "You guys, I'm sorry. It's just not safe. We gotta take a break," Grohl said after the latter song.
He and his bandmates left the stage and it was eventually announced they wouldn't be able to continue the concert. They later took to Twitter to post a photo of them performing in the rain and wrote, "Quebec City, we'll be back...Mother Nature always wins."
