Taylor Hawkins

I was so devastated when I heard the news. I just want to say thank you for all the things you've done with the band. I'd say I've been through a lot of ups and downs in my life listening to Foo Fighters, and it helped me a lot.

Rest in Peace, Taylor Hawkins. You will be missed.

Taylor's onstage charisma made every song epic. When I saw him play live for the first time, I felt my life was forever changed for the better. With him, an era of my life is gone. May 25 years of musical history be enough for my heart to beat fast and strong forever.

I first saw you play with the Foos in 1997 at the age of 12. To say that night changed my life is cliche, but also true. Thank you for being a part of that, for providing the soundtrack of my life, and love and strength to all your family and friends❤️
