During Fleetwood Mac's headlining performance Sunday at England's Isle of Wight festival, Nicks reportedly dedicated the song "Landslide" to the Foo Fighters frontman, who suffered a fractured leg after falling off the stage at a concert Friday in Sweden but completed the show anyway.
"I'd like to dedicate this to Dave Grohl," Nicks said, according to NME. "Falling off stage, getting up and playing a two-and-a-half-hour set, I think that's awesome."
Due to Grohl's injury, Foo Fighters canceled their headlining performance at the Pinkpop Festival on June 14, plus their June 16 show in Switzerland.
Meanwhile, Fleetwood Mac has been recovering from their own health issues. The band was forced to cancel two shows in the U.K. leading up to the Isle of Wight festival, due to band member illness. The Isle of Wight performance was Fleetwood Mac's first show back since the cancellations.
