Dave Grohl has Foo Fighters fans abuzz.

The band's frontman told a crowd at England's Reading Festival in Leeds on Sunday that it was a special night, marking the end of the band's tour in support of their latest album Wasting Light.

"Well, well, well," he said, according to NME. "The (effing) Reading festival. You guys realize we've got a lot of songs to play. It's the last show of the tour and it's the last show for a long time.''

Grohl, 43, dedicated the band's performances of Walk and Monkey Wrench to his daughters Violet and Harper, and recalled former Nirvana mates Krist Novoselic and the late Kurt Cobain before launching into These Days.

But it's really not the last show for the Foo Fighters for a long time, according to the band's site.

They have dates lined up in September — Rock the Vote in Charlotte on Sept. 5, during the Democratic National Convention; followed by the Music Midtown Festival in Atlanta Sept. 21 and DeLuna Fest in Pensacola Beach, Fla., on Sept. 22.
