A group of anti-vaxxers protested on Tuesday outside a Foo Fighters concert in California that only allowed vaccinated fans, Variety reported.

On Saturday, the rock band announced a show at the Canyon Club in Agoura Hills for Tuesday, ahead of a larger performance with similar requirements at Madison Square Garden in New York City on June 20.

Tickets were non-transferable and buyers had to show proof they were over 21 and vaccinated in order to pick up tickets in person at the Club on Sunday, RollingStone reported.

Variety reported that anti-vaxxers protested the concert and appeared to be joined by child star Ricky Schroeder.

"Dave Grohl is an ignorant punk who needs slapped for supporting Discrimination. Ignorance comes in all shapes & sizes. Kurt Cobain is laughing at you Dave along with Millions of Patriots….Fool," Schroeder wrote in a June 13 Facebook post following the concert announcement.

The concert was intimate for the band, with the club holding a little more than 600 people.

Insider has reached out to both Schroeder and Foo Fighters' record label for comment.
