Taylor Hawkins

Your Smile
Your Music
Your Voice
It has been there my entire adult life. Every milestone my husband and I have shared we can connect it to a Foo Fighters song or album and it feels like a piece of us has gone forever now.
Rock on in Peace Hawk 🤘

My heart is broken but I'm so thankful all the memories that everyone has will live on. I only saw the Foos twice, but they were two of my favorite shows ever. Peace and light to all who love him. RIP Taylor.

I got to see Taylor back in 2018 when the Foos toured. By the time the night was done, Taylor’s status went from rock legend to rock god in the hearts and mind of all of us. There’s just no comparison. Never will be either. I am heartbroken.

Foo Fighters en River 2012, Argentina, fue el mejor recital de mí vida. Ese día llovía a cántaros. La energía en el estadio era tal que se armaban remolinos de vapor. Hawk fuiste inmenso y unico. Seguimos en shock. Buen viaje.

Taylor Hawkins will go down in history as one of the best drummers to ever sit behind a drum kit, and as having the greatest, most infectious smile in rock history! I never had the chance to meet him but seeing him perform live was always an absolute honour, his legacy will go on

Charlotte

I still can’t believe this is true, how can it be? Someone with such life, energy and vitality, the shenanigans with Dave on stage. It doesn’t make any sense and so difficult to process right now.

In the Netherlands you call goosebumps “Kippevel”.

For my feeling ever since I’ve heard the first Foo Fighters album I saw that smile and the fun in the faces of the guys. Saw you guys several times live, the energy of Taylor and the band was adrenaline till the bones.

Ruud
