LONDON, July 16 (UPI) -- The lead singer of the rock band Foo Fighters lashed out at a fan who was actually fighting during a concert in London this week.

The New York Daily News said Saturday lead singer Dave Grohl stopped the show and angrily ordered the rowdy spectator off the premises.

"You don't come to my show and fight, you come to my show and … dance," Grohl growled as the offender was escorted out of the iTunes Festival Monday.

The Foo Fighters were in Britain this week on tour in support of their new CD "Wasting Light."
