For almost 10 years now, Dave Grohl and Foo Fighters have feuded with the right-wing bigots of the Westboro Baptist Church, who’ve picketed his band’s shows when they perform in Kansas. In past years, Foo Fighters organized counter-protest performances and even rickrolled the church congregants.

Last night, August 5, the Westboro Baptist picketers gathered outside Azura Amphitheater in Bonner Springs, Kansas once again to protest Grohl and his rock’n’roll band. This time, the Foo Fighters piled onto a flatbed truck to perform the Bee Gees’ “You Should Be Dancing,” as covered on their recent Dee Gees release Hail Satin.

“Ladies and gentlemen, I got something to say. Because you know what? I love you,” Grohl sai. “The way I look at it, I love everybody. That’s what you’re supposed to do.… I deliver all of my love, and you shouldn’t be hating. You should be dancing.” Watch that go down below.
