"FOO FIGHTERS frontman Dave Grohl reportedly broke his leg after falling off stage during a gig – but carried on singing and playing guitar.
Grohl, 38, took a dramatic tumble while playing 1997 hit Monkey Wrench – the second song of his band's set in Goteborg, Sweden.
He headed backstage for treatment while drummer Taylor Hawkins played a series of covers, including Queen's Tie Your Mother Down and Under Pressure.
Grohl told tens of thousands of fans at Ullevi, Sweden's biggest stadium: 'Hey, ladies and gentlemen, I love you too motherf******.
'Now, look – I think I just broke my leg. I think I really broke leg.
'So look, you have my promise, right now, that the Foo Fighters, we're gonna come back and finish the show.'
True to his word, he hobbled back on stage to a hero's welcome – and finished the gig.
He said: 'I may not be able to walk or run but I can still play guitar and scream...'"
