8 year oldDuring a recent acoustic set, the Foo Fighters front man explained to the crowd what happened when he was partying with a room full of famous people at the Beatles legend’s house.
“Just so you know, Paul McCartney is the baddest motherf***er in the world,” Grohl said.
“There was a piano in the room and Paul gets up and starts playing a song ... It’s blowing everyone’s f***ing mind. And then he finishes the song and everybody looks at me and says, ‘Go on Dave, play a song’.”
But as talented as he is, Grohl can’t actually play the piano so he started panicking.
“And then I look around ... and all of the guitars are left-handed (because Paul McCartney’s left-handed).”
The rocker admitted that he thought he was “screwed” ... and then Taylor Swift came to his rescue.
“All of a sudden, Taylor Swift stands up and says, ‘I’ll play a song’.”
Swift sat at the piano and started playing while Grohl, feeling like he had to contribute, grabbed one of McCartney’s left-handed guitars and struggled to jam along to the mystery tune.
“I look at my wife and I’m like, I know this f***ing song. And she (Swift) was f***ing playing our song, Best of You. As if I weren’t high enough, that f***ing blew me into outer space ... I just lost my mind.”
During the story, Grohl described Swift as “Batman” as she was there to save the day exactly when he needed help.
