This really sucks. I really enjoyed watching their videos and he was quite the character. May he rest in peace.
RIP Taylor Hawkins. Far too young...

RIP.
Love that movie so much!

Thanks for posting. Condolences to family & friends.
No cause of sudden death=Clot shot.

Probably the vax or heroin…. Or both. I’m not that far behind you in age and his death isn’t something that will make me question my own existence.

On Saturday, the District Secretary of Health in Colombia confirmed in a press release that the drummer, 50, died in the town of Chapinero after suffering chest pains at his hotel.
“The city’s Emergency and Emergency Regulatory Center received a report about a patient with chest pain in a hotel located north of the city. An ambulance was dispatched to attend to the case,” the press release, translated in English, states.
It goes on to say a health professional attended to Hawkins and performed “resuscitation maneuvers.”
