Taylor Swift gushed over U2’s support after receiving a sweet gift when she landed in their home country of Ireland for her Eras Tour.
“Already feeling that Irish hospitality!!” Swift, 34, wrote via her Instagram Story on Friday, June 28, revealing that the Irish band — made up of Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr. — sent her a bouquet of flowers. “@U2 thanks for always being the classiest & coolest.”
In addition to the roses and orchids that U2 sent, they penned a heartfelt message to Swift since she’s performing three days in Dublin this weekend.
“Dear Taylor, Welcome back to our hometown … leave some of it standing?!!!!” the group teased, referring to Swift’s fans creating earthquakes at several tour stops. U2 signed the card, “Your Irish fan club, Bono, Edge, Adam and Larry.”
Swift’s warm welcome comes ahead of her Dublin shows at Aviva Stadium on Friday, Saturday, June 29, and Sunday, June 30.
The Grammy winner is fresh off a three-day stint at London’s Wembley Stadium. While the shows were a massive success — and featured boyfriend Travis Kelce’s stage debut — Swift received some criticism from Foo Fighters singer Dave Grohl while in town.
Grohl, 55, dissed Swift during one his band’s Saturday, June 22, show in London, alleging that the pop star doesn’t perform her songs live.
“I know we were joking about the Taylor Swift tour earlier. I know that she’s on her Eras Tour,” he told the crowd, teasing, “I’m telling you, man, you don’t want to suffer the wrath of Taylor Swift.”
Grohl then poked fun at Swift’s world tour, which began in March 2023, saying, “So we like to call our tour ‘The Errors Tour’ because I feel like we’ve had more than a few eras and more than a few f—king errors as well.”
He quipped: “That’s because we actually play live. What? Just saying. You guys like raw, live rock ‘n’ roll music, right? You came to the right f–king place.”
Swift seemingly fired back at Grohl’s claims during her Sunday, June 23, show in England’s capital. “Every one of my band members, every single one of our crew, my band who’s gonna be playing live for you for 3.5 hours tonight, they deserve this so much,” she told her fans. “And so does every one of my fellow performers. And you just gave that to us so generously, we will never forget it.”
While Swift got some shade from Grohl, she received a lot of positive support from celebrities in attendance at her shows, including Prince William, who brought his eldest kids Prince George and Princess Charlotte to the June 21 concert. William, 42, posed backstage for a selfie with Swift and his children, as well as Kelce, 34, who was in town to cheer on his girlfriend.
