Foo Fighters to cancel Glastonbury and tour? Emily Eavis unsure Photo: WENN
Bad news if you're heading to Glastonbury next week - it currently looks uncertain if Foo Fighters will even perform, at least according to Glasto boss Emily Eavis. 

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

Last week saw the Foos make headlines when frontman Dave Grohl fell from the stage during a show before breaking his leg. Like a champ, he carried on playing, but was forced to cancel a subsequent show. 

Now, doubt has been cast over whether the band will be able to play Glasto (and maybe this weekend's Wembley Stadium shows) - according to Glastonbury organiser Emily Eavis. 

"I was so sorry to hear that, and poor Dave Grohl," she told BBC Radio One's Newsbeat. "It was an amazing moment when he carried on playing. I'm not sure what the outcome's going to be yet."

She did also confirm that there were contingency plans in place if Foo Fighters could not make their headline slot. Who could replace them? 

Foo Fighters are currently still to go ahead and perform their headline show at London's Wembley Stadium this Friday (19 June).

Let's hope Grohl is in a fit state to perform at Glastonbury, and the following UK tour dates.  For tickets and more information, click here.
