  • Story Text: Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl reportedly suffered a broken bone in his leg during a performance in Gothenburg, Sweden Friday (June 12).
    The Grammy-winnning musician, who is also the former Nirvana drummer, was performing at a festival in Sweden's second largest city when he injured himself during his second song.
    In several videos shot by fans and posted to YouTube on Friday, Grohl tells the audience: "I think I just broke my leg. I think I really broke my leg."
    "Right now, I'm going to go to the hospital, and I'm going to fix my leg. But then I'm going to come back, and we're going to play for you again. I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry," he said.
    Later, Grohl posted a picture of the X-ray image of his broken leg on the Twitter page of the Foo Fighters, writing, "Thank you Gothenburg. That was amazing."
