The protestors were standing outside of the Azura Amphitheater, waving an array of signs that read \u201cNo Peace for the Wicked\u201d and \u201cGod Hates Your Idols.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the ultimate troll, the band drove up in a flatbed truck each sporting Bee Gees influenced outfits \u2014 inspired by their new alter egos the \u201cDee Gees,\u201d the tour\u2019s latest gimmick<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Grohl, 52, addressed the crowd right before the band covered the Bee Gees\u2019 \u201cYou Should Be Dancing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cLadies and gentlemen, I got something to say,\u201d he said. \u201cBecause you know what? I love you! I do. The way I look at it, I love everybody. Isn\u2019t that what you\u2019re supposed to do? Can\u2019t you just love everybody? Because I think it\u2019s about love. That\u2019s what I think. I deliver all of my love, and you shouldn\u2019t be hating. You know what you should be doing? You should be dancing!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ahead of their tour, the Foo Fighters \u2014 under the alias \u201cDee Gees\u201d \u2014 recorded their most recent album, \u201cHail Satin,\u201d which featured their lighthearted covers of Bee Gees songs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Grohl and his bandmates are no strangers to Westboro Baptist Church protests. A decade ago, similar to the most recent confrontation, the band performed an&nbsp;impromptu flatbed concert&nbsp;to troll protesters. Then again in 2015, the band pulled a gag on protestors in Kansas City when the group&nbsp;Rickrolled the crowd, eventually drowning out chants and subsequently creating a \u201cgiant dance party.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After the latest showdown, it\u2019s safe to say the Foo Fighters are three for three against the Westboro Baptist Church protestors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>The latest surprise involves the&nbsp;Westboro Baptist Church&nbsp;protesting the band\u2019s Aug. 5 show in Bonner Springs, Kan.
