Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl postponed the band’s final concert of their Australian tour to take his daughter to a dance.

The band was meant to play in Perth on March 7 but announced last year the show would be rescheduled to the 8th due to “unforeseen scheduling conflicts”.

Grohl revealed during Sunday’s show that he postponed the concert so he could fly back home to take his daughter to the father-daughter dance.

But at the dance he got food poisoning and spent the entire flight back to Perth throwing up.

Despite Grohl’s illness, the Foo Fighters performed their entire two and a half hour show to the nearly sold-out nib stadium without missing a beat.

Grohl said the band hoped to return to a stadium act in Australia in a few years but would also like to perform at a festival.

Grohl, the former drummer for Nirvana, and his wife Jordyn Blum have three daughters.
