Foo Fighter's cancel tour date after Dave Grohl's fall Photo: WENN

Foo Fighters have cancelled some of their tour dates after Dave Grohl sustained a fracture to his leg after falling from the stage during a gig in Sweden on Friday (12 June).

- UPDATE: Foo Fighters have now cancelled Wembley, Glastonbury and their UK tour - read Grohl's apology here

In true rockstar fashion Grohl was able to complete the gig after the accident in Gothenburg, taking to the stage on a chair with his leg up, after being seen to by doctors off stage. 

It seems though, that even a rock legend needs to take a little rest, as the Foo Fighters headline slot at Pinkpop festival on June 14 in the Netherlands's was cancelled, as well as their upcoming June 16 gig in St. Gallen, Switzerland. 

That makes their next date June 19 at London's Wembley Stadium. There are no signs of Foo Fighters backing out of their Glastonbury headlining slot, either. 

Watch a video of Grohl's fall in action below
