Taylor Hawkins

Your talent and love of music is a light that will now only reach beyond this world. My heart is so sad over your loss especially for your family & bandmates. I have only seen FF live once but it was amazing.

I never met Taylor, but every time I watched him perform or listened to him play, I felt like I was watching a friend. I have pit tickets to see the Foo fighters for the first time this summer. I didn't think emotions existed to top my excitement, but I was wrong. 🤍 RIP Taylor

I was lucky enought to see you perform live 7 times. Every time I would stand in awe, amazed at the talent you had. The world has lost a fantastic musician, band member, friend, father and husband. My heart goes out to your family and band mates at this very sad time. 💔😢🤘

You and the band were my first source of inspiration when I was 15 and I thought "Ok, now I want to learn an instrument and play in a rock band". Thank you for being the soundtrack of my life. Rest in peace Taylor

I saw you guys in Glasgow 2019, best gig I have ever been to, the atmosphere, the noise, the crowd, everything.

Watch Studio 666 in February, what a laugh. I hope to see you later this year.

Love to you all, wish I could give you a hug in person. 😘

When I found out Taylor Hawkins was dead, i felt absolutely gutted. I wanted to wake up and just say it was a nightmare, but sadly that isn’t the case. Taylor Hawkins will never be forgotten. Rest easy, We love you ❤️

What a privilege has been to live on the same time as an artist like Taylor. The feeling that I hope will always remain is the love he left here through his art. I’m just thankful that I saw him live a couple of times, I’m just sorry I never hugged him. Long live Taylor Hawkins

Taylor (+ the Coattail Riders) was the first Foo I saw live. Download 2010! All I could see from the back of the tent was his huge smile and was absolutely blown away. Saw Dave and TCV the same day. Was hooked every opportunity after that was taken to see them. Devastated RIP X

Taylor, your energy is unrivaled, your talent insane, and your spirit is larger than life. We were blessed to see you in Cleveland in October at the House of Blues, and then witness your induction into the HOF. Your gift will never be lost, but we are sure going to miss you. 💔

Jen

To the FF but especially to Dave.
To lose a father, brother, son and friend. One could wish that you could see him again. Yesterday is still a blur and tomorrow feels like forever. I hope and wish that your happiness isn’t all gone, even though today is a living fucking hell.

Vincent R

Thank you for so many years of amazing music. I never met you, or saw you in concert, but your love for music and your energy could be felt through all the music I heard or videos of concerts watched. I’ve been inspired to learn how to play the drums in your memory . 💚

KW

You will be missed… I’ll never forget you!
My favorite member from my favorite band died on my birthday.
Hope you find some peace
To his Family (which the Foo’s are included) and friends, my heart is with you. Hope you too can find some peace ♥️

We've journeyed together through some really shitty parts of my life. Thank you for being part of my medicine, to calm me down or fire me up. It's hard to say goodbye to someone you've never met, yet the loss feels worse than for some of the people I did know.

Pyklet

I never met you personally but have seen you live and loved it. Foo Fighters have been mine and my cousin's favorite band since we were kids. It felt like we lost a family member. On my vacation this past weekend, I got a band to play a Foo song in memory. Rest easy Taylor.

Jeff H

Taylor, you can never know the millions of people you brought so much joy to during your too short time on Earth. Your reach was immense and your loss overwhelming. Will miss you forever.

Erin H

I love you Taylor. I have looked up to you since I was a little kid, and I always wished I could meet you. It breaks my heart that you left this world too soon, I miss you so so much and I will never forget you. I love you so much.

Aly Arpaio

Wow, the rock n roll world is a sadder place without you already Taylor.
Selfishly I feel so sad that I will probably never see the Foo fighters again.
My love and thoughts are with all your family, especially your wife and children. And also to the whole of the Foo family 💔🥰

Rebecca lee

England

It is difficult to put the immense feelings of loss into words. Your music gave me the emotional and inner strength I needed to get through my divorce, so you did actually change my life, for the better. You were a light in this world. Thank you, Taylor. Love you.

Suzanne Cheshire

Oregon, USA

Still can't believe it. So grateful I lived in the time period that Taylor Hawkins got to rock out in.

Condolences to Taylor's friends , family and bandmates.

The music will live on forever.

Truly devastating loss of a great rock musician. I’ve been a fan since 2006 and I was going to see the band play live for the first time by the end of June this year. I wish I got to see you play just once. May you rest in peace, Taylor. Foo Fighters forever and always.
