“The Foo Fighters family is devastated by the tragic and untimely loss of our beloved Taylor Hawkins,” the band writes. “His musical spirit and infectious laughter will live on with all of us forever”

As news of Hawkins’ death spread, numerous musicians and celebrities took to social media to honor the late drummer. “God bless you Taylor Hawkins. I loved your spirit and your unstoppable rock power,” wrote Rage Against the Machine’s Tom Morello, sharing a photo of himself and Hawkins alongside Jane’s Addiction’s Perry Farrell. “Rest In Peace my friend.” Miley Cyrus, a noted Foo Fighters fan, shared a photograph of herself and Hawkins to her Instagram stories, writing, “This is how I’ll always remember you,” and added that her upcoming concert would be dedicated to him. Slash wrote that Hawkins’ death left him “devastated,” saying, “I’ve no words to express all the feelings I have about his passing.” Former Dream Theater drummer Mike Portnoy, Ozzy Osbourne, producer Steve Albini and musician Finneas were among others who also shared tributes.

I tend to agree with you though he was a recovering drug addict.

Idiots. So many stuck their arm out because their beloved RAT government told them it was cool. “we just wanna do our part cause were all in this together” bullsheet.

The RAT party is the uncool party of demented old fools.

If deaths are all Covid deaths, deaths with the vaxx are vaxx deaths.

Now, the jab goes on the drug overdose list. It may actually be a convenient way to disguise jab caused deaths, just call all of them drug overdoses.

Cobain died of buckshot.

RIP Hawkins. IMO Foo Fighters are the last rock band around.

Why do people have to come on threads and #$%& on it?! And since when is professing your ignorance of multiple Grammy Award winning band a good thing?! Really you went to all the trouble to come onto this thread just to tell people you’re culturally unaware and a dick. Message received. Let us know when you die so we can go piss on your grave, since you seem to think that’s a good thing.

One of the ugliest posts I have ever seen on FR.

You're sick in the head, lady.
