Add Your MessageNobody released my inner rock chick as much as you Taylor. An immense presence on stage, a demon on the drums and all with the most wonderful smile and energy.
You will be missed. Sending love and strength to your family, your fellow Foos and all the fans around the world.
You left a big whole here on earth. Your smile and enthusiasm for music was infectious. Seemed like you all were enjoying the tour; so it feels very unreal. Your musical legend will have to carry us through. Blessings to your wife and children.
You inspired me to play drums thank you for that! You have an amazing singing voice. Rest easy buddy.. Hey, look at the good side, he is in a better place with other musicians!
You, your music and your attitude will always be in my ears, my mind and my heart. Taylor never dices!!!!
I'm sorry I drunkenly called you Tyler that one time we crossed paths. I enjoyed every single show you were a part of, from Chevy Metal to the Holy Shits. Thank you for the talent you bestowed upon us. Rest in beats, sir.
Merci❤️🇨🇵
I never met you but I didn’t have to to know how much of an inspiring and funny and genuine person you were. You lived one of the best lives and had some of the best friends and made some of the best music. Gone but never ever forgotten
Va a ser muy difícil escuchar tu música sabiendo que no estás en este plano. Gracias por todo lo que nos dejaste. Sos libre, ahora descansa

Nobody in my family understand why I love this group and it’s very sad that maybe you will never come to Peru. I hope the FF family have the force to accept this sad moment. Taylor always in our hearts.
Querido Taylor.
Espero que tu partida se pueda sanar rápidamente.
Te vi en el show de Lolapalloza el 20/03 en Buenos Aires, tan vivo y lleno de energía!.
Solo deseo que estés tranquilo y cuidandonos. RIP
I’m still thinking that I would see you in Philadelphia in July. Processing this for the last day and a half doesn’t seem real. Had my signs ready for you and Dave.. hoping for drumsticks thrown my way..The music world has been better with you in it. Thank you Taylor. ❤️
Can’t really come up with the words…just absolutely gutted. #riptaylorhawkins

Ich bin zutiefst bestürzt und traurig über den Tod Taylors . Mein Mitgefühl gilt seiner Frau und den Kindern sowie der Band und allen die dazugehören.
I think it's time you walked this lonely road
All on your own 😥🤟🤙
It's your cold day in the sun
I am more than devastated to learn of the passing of Taylor. It is not an understatement that The Foo Fighters have changed. My life through their music by taking me out of dark places and bringing me back to life. I will always be so grateful that I saw Taylor perform ❤️
Words can't express how devasted I am. You and the band have given me so much throughout my life. I am forever grateful for being able to witness your awesomeness on many occasions. Sleep easy Taylor. You will be forever missed xxx
Gone far too soon! RIP Taylor
Thank you Taylor for everything. You will always be one of my biggest musical inspirations, your great spirit and infectious smile will love on forever. May you Rest In Peace
My condolences 🙏. I'm just a gutted fan and can only imagine what the Family and band mates are going through. R.I.P. Taylor.
Que allá donde estés, seas feliz, Taylor. Por acá, en una extraña paradoja, escucharemos la música que ahora nos destruye, pero que luego nos hará estar mejor (como en tantas otras oportunidades).
"Sunday rain" se escuchará hoy en casa.
Y abrazalo a Dave, muy, muy, fuerte.
💔
Taylor, you will be missed so much! Thanx for the music, you were the best drummer in the world.
My heart goes out to his wife, children and family and bis bandmates...I have no words...
Rest In Peace Taylor....heaven is a big bang now 💖
No way man, gone far too soon, hope your partying up there dude.god bless 💙
Taylor, you have been and will always remain one of my absolute heroes. Your music has helped me get through this crazy thing we call life and inspired me to pick up an instrument myself. Losing you is unfathomable and the world will be a lesser place without you. Rest in peace.
Thank you. Thank you for sharing your talent and touching our hearts. Thank you for your smile. Thank you for being such a big part of my love for music. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for just being you. So much love to your huge extended family.
Thoughts with all your loved ones Taylor, rest easy 💖
Thank you for saving us, with music
Love & thoughts to all who knew & loved you, your family & friends, so, so sorry for their loss. I'm just a fan who never met you but can never thank you enough for the times I've rocked out but thank you Taylor, so much. You've brought light to my world & it will be missed x
Rest easy Taylor. Thank you for the music and the inspiration, you'll be deeply missed. Hope you're okay wherever you are.
💔 My heart breaks for Taylor's wife and children. His family. Dave and all of the Foo Fighter band and family. Such a loss of a great guy and great musician. My deepest condolences to everyone. His music will live on in our hearts forever. Rest in Peace Taylor 💔
To Taylor’s family, friends, the Foo Fighters family and all who loved him, we are so incredibly sorry for your loss of precious Taylor. My daughter & I were lucky enough to meet him years ago. He was so kind. Our prayers and thoughts are with all of you.
Taylor, your loss is equally as difficult as when we lost Kurt. You were taken way to early. I want to thank you for the music you shared with all of us. The Foos were the first concert I took my son,Cooper to. To see the joy in his face when he saw you was the best gift! RIP
Taylor was the best drummer I've ever seen live. His commitment to the art was unmatched and its why Dave wanted him for the band. He was also a very talented singer and some of my favorite Foo songs are ones where Taylor lays down a vocal track. Wish his family the best.
Met you in Dublin taylor, we talked about my son also having ADHD and u reassured me like you he could still do anything he wanted. Will forever hold this in my heart, he grew his hair just like you because it was cool. The greats above needed a new drummer and they choose you
Couldn’t believe it when I saw the news. Saw you open Climate Pledge Arena. Never forget you singing Shadow Dancing. You are so missed
For Taylor
Thank you for being the soundtrack to mine and my girls lives since 1997. We are broken hearted and just cannot comprehend the thought of not seeing you or hearing you again on this earth. Keep drumming up there and we’ll keep banging on the ceiling! RIP hero ❤️💔❤️💔❤️
The day you left this world, someone saw me cry and told me: You really are more a Taylor’s fan than a Foo Fighters’s fan. I never really thought about it, but it’s true. Thanks for being light in the darkness for many of us. We will never forget you. Rest in power!
I saw Tay in Laguna last summer and gave him shit about his brother voting for Trump again. We laughed. He was going to the beach and dressed exactly like he was on stage.
Im 15 and I’ve been a huge fan of the foos for awhile I sadly never got too meet Taylor but I’m sure he was a beautiful soul I can’t imagine what his family friends and band mates are going through I’ll miss him so much. And Dave I’ll keep you in my thoughts R.i.p Taylor ❤️
Estamos con ustedes todos los rokeros tijuanenses lamentamos lo secedido nuestro baterista Taylor se nos adelanto En paz descanse
Taylor, your energy and love for music was infectious and will be missed forever.
Estamos con ustedes todos los rokeros tijuanenses lamentamos lo secedido nuestro baterista Taylor se nos adelanto En paz descanse
Taylor I will miss you so very much. I've seen the Foo Fighters live many times and was always blown away by your gorgeous smile and of course your insanely amazing drumming
It definitely is a Cold Day In the Sun and I will miss you forever X
Thank you for the memories and the music you leave behind. Your music helped me navigate through life’s ups and downs. You will always be remembered as a true Hero in my life. Sending prayers to your family and your fellow Foo brothers. 🙏🏽🤍 Rest Easy 🌻
Thank you for all you had been and done, and for all the lives you touched on this Earth. You will be greatly missed. We lost a great person who will never be replaced.
"Music is the soundtrack to our lives."
Thank you Taylor Hawkins for being a part of my soundtrack
Taylor, we will miss you so much. Your spirit will live on
through the musical legacy you leave behind. All my love and support goes to your family and friends ❤️
You will be truly missed…a real rockstar 💫 Rest in Power, Taylor 💖 Condolences to the family, I can’t even imagine the pain they are going through…
Very sad. Was looking forward to seeing you in May at Boston Calling.
Taylor, from the moment I started listening to the Foo Fighters, I fell in love with your drumming and the energy and joy you have when you’re behind the drum kit. You will forever be remembered as one of the greatest drummers in rock n’ roll history. Rest in peace, we love you.
We already miss you. My heart is broken. I’m already hearing a great heavenly jam with Kurt, Chris and Freddy among many others . Love to your friends and family. LoveU T
You were an inspiration every day. When I was feeling lost, alone, or depressed all I had to do was play a Foo Fighters song...any song...watch your energy and that blazing 'light-up-the-world' smile and my day was better. That white suit you wore on Letterman was everything. RIP
