    There aren't many bands where you can switch the drummer and lead singer and get just as great of a performance. RIP Taylor Hawkins 🖤

      there wouldnt be a Foo Fighters without Rick. He called Dave when Kurt died and told him he needed to do his own thing. A word from the wise lead to the greatness of the Foo Fighters. Rick Nielsen is revered by everyone from Maiden to Jimmy Page to Alice Cooper they all say how great a person he is.

      That is one of the many things that I can’t stop thinking about. They were “bros” and their admiration for each other and how they just clicked will be missed by so many. I think any real fan will tell you that. You couldn’t help but see their love for each other.

    You are not going to find a better all around great band. The greatsest this or that gets thrown around a lot. It is truly subjective. But without a doubt FF are the greatest all around, music loving, generous, non ego band. What a f**king shame that we lost Taylor. That hole will be a very, very, very hard hole to fill.
