Kaiser Chiefs recently unveiled a video skit in which Dave Grohl gives them a fiery pep talk at one of their gigs. The video, played before the encore of the band’s arena tour, sees the Foo Fighters frontman storming into the Kaiser Chiefs dressing room and delivering a rant at each band member. “What the fuck was that?” Grohl screams. “What a fucking load of shit. Bunch of amateurs, all of you … You’re the Kaiser Chiefs, act like it.”
