Getting to be with thousands and thousands of people saying 'Yes, we miss him too. He was wonderful and now it sucks he's gone' while you honor the person you lost will probably cover about 2 years of therapy.
@@joer2513 RIP man. I just lost a friend to h several weeks ago. (trigger warning ahead) He was found in his car in a motel parking lot, had been there for 3 days (in the sweltering summer heat). Just brutal. It's an epidemic affecting all demographics and backgrounds. Hoping for a better tomorrow.
They are all staring at him like proud uncles. There was so much love and happiness and emotional relief up there during that song. That kid is so strong and talented.
You know that kid is adopted into the Foo family. Like Jason Bonham was into Led Zep. They disbanded after John passed. Only reformed if Jason was on drums.. The family don't forget. the love will always be there.
4:03 Agreed.. And, is it just me? But this is where Shane absolutely Exploded (in a good way). . Imo too say that this was an epic performance is simply an understatement
@@ethanvanacker Even though it’s a mega easy song to play, he’s still very good for a kid and what a performance from him emotionally and mentally, just a beautiful moment love to watch it every now and again.
I love how every band member is looking at Shane as if they were proud uncles, looking after their nephew who´s dad died and they will be there for him forever
@@Chatterbox-94 I couldn’t agree more. When they first showed his son I couldn’t see the resemblance. Then they showed pictures of Taylor at that age and they look identical to each other.
"I don't think I've ever seen anyone hit the drums as hard as this person" is craaaazy coming out of Dave's mouth. That is EXACTLY what Kurt said about Dave himself when he joined Nirvana as their last drummer...unREAL
Seeing how elated Dave and Pat were to soo Shane smack those skins so hard, as hard as his dad did! Beautiful. I'm looking forward to seeing Shane succeed in his band, or even being a part of the Foos when he is older. Stunningly sad and powerfully strong footage of a young boy mourning his papa.
While I'm sure that is most of it, he also is letting Shane lead them the whole time. He's taking all their queues from him and seeing if he wants to throw in a fill at any point or just keep going etc.
Did anyone notice when Shane subtly kissed the drum set, one of his dad’s actual drum sets? As a parent, I completely lost it at that point. You raised a wonderful kid, Taylor ❤️
Undeniably one of the greatest drumming performances in rock. The motive, the talent, the absolute SOUL poured into the performance is absolutely bone chilling
You're absolutely right even if he isn't a professional drummer even if it's not Neil Peart or John Bonham, this is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen in rock and roll and should go down in the books
I’m a grown ass, 29 year old man, and a drummer, and every time i watch this I’m brought to bittersweet tears. This dude is drumming out his frustrations, emotions, and doing so impeccably, given the situation at hand. Bravo, Shane, i wish you nothing but success in your future.
Probably the most emotionally driven performances I've seen to date. He didn't care about the audience. Just played for his dad with so much passion. There was no doubt he was beating the hell out of those drums because he misses his dad. Never misses a beat, a cue, and nailed his embellishments, and played dynamically. He did this song right. Served its purpose. Rock on kid
This has become one of my favorite drum performances of all time. You cannot possibly get more passionate than a kid who just lost his dad. You can see the pain on his face and he’s channeling it into something positive.
@@CandyPerkins1864 he is really just laying it all out there. All of his emotions! I’m glad that somebody else recognized this. I just lost my best friend on Sunday. I don’t know you but thank you for your kind comment.
The way he walks away when the song is over.. like he didn't want the applause or anything else, he just played as a tribute to his dad. Just beautiful
The pure emotion of this performance gets me bawling tears every time I watch it. The way Shane makes it an aggression therapy session. The way Dave keeps turning around to show the kid his support, the way Omar Hakim was sitting at a second drum kit right next to Shane, just in case he had a breakdown and couldn’t continue. and the sing along from the massive crowd.
Nothing to say .......freaking bad ass !!!!!!!! He needs to take his dad's spot in foo !!! Do his education on the road like Wolfgang van Halen did ...that kid is music 🎶
@@scottwoods2621 can’t say I disagree. I suspect the natural urge will be to be protective of him. Foos could take a 2 year hiatus and then have him offically join at 18 years old and maybe with a new album.
The way they all look at him like proud uncles is just so pure. Especially Dave just beaming when he did his little solo at the end. They were just there to support him at that moment.
@@DepD2234 you deserve hell for even saying this about his kid or Kurt, you need help and I promise tayler OR Kurt would kill you. To disrespect someone habits or mental health is beyond evil. You have nothing
Man. He didn't miss a beat. As someone who lost their father at 10 1/2 years old. I recognize his pain. So happy he got this opportunity! Can only imagine how much of a cathartic experience for him this must be.....! Edit: 3:50 Watching him pour his pain into his drumming..... Made me ball my eyes out with a smile on my face! 🥲 Grief eats you up inside if you don't let it out!!!!
My grief eats me up everyday. You’re definitely right on releasing it. I just don’t know how. I’m sorry for your loss. I hope your days have been better everyday you wake up😊 I lost my best friend and grandma in the same week. I know what this pain feels like.
God loves all his children and welcomes them home regardless of the sins their heart have committed because Jesus was the ultimate sacrifice for salvation. But thanks for playing 🤍
It's an overflow of emotions for Dave. The solo that Shane played is Dave's trademark drum solo. It's a look of shock, pride and absolute happiness. It's a wholesome moment
I come here often to watch this video. I am only 22 years old but I loved the Foo Fighters since I was 10 thnx to my dad. This video brings chills to me, Shane has such a talent.
Yes!!!! I’ve watched this video 100 times. It is on point. I always get a lump in my throat and my eyes swell up. I hope we see Shane do some big stuff.
his dad is proud of him*. Fixed that for you for, parents alive or since passed will always be proud of their kids, and kids should never doubt that :)
@@nate87465we knew what you mean even if appeared to be some dis or else even . When you see ,"fixed it for you" in a response, that person just wants to find something to dig at
what a pathetic load of crap, the kids just playing drums. you don't even know the kids father, he died of a drug overdose?? the most pathetic person in the world is the one that believes they matter when they don't. get some mental health help!
This whole performance is just painfully beautiful and moving. From a drummer who lost his front man, to a front man who lost his drummer, to a son who lost his father. Shane sure is playing with all the pain and love he feels. Absolutely stunning....
Also of course he should finish school and whatnot, but what if he played only this song at every show he attended…at least until they found a permanent drummer but even maybe after that? I think that’d be so awesome!
I havet ever seen a 16 yr old play that professional ever! He is so young and so great, hope he goes to play drums as a career, we'd be the wones losing out of being able to see this magic . Way to go,your the best! ❤😊
That kid played his heart out. I know his dad is proud. I hope he's okay, and I wish him strength in his loss. I hope he never forgets that moment, playing in front of thousands of fans, and he chases it for the rest of his life.
Must in some way help Dave and the rest of the band having there brothers son shine like he used too…they all would of seen this young man grow up and been a part of his life from the start like his dad, you can see how proud and moved Dave was…amazing
Shane hits the drums with the fury of a million suns, raging at a universe who took his dad way too soon. He's got Taylor's passion, accuracy, and energy .. all amped up.
Bro, do you even know what kind of rage a million sun's burns with? NO, you don't! Cause we only have one and you don't even know the Fury THAT one burns with!
He drums as hard as Dave and as intensely as his dad. The fact that he could get up in front of 75,000 people in the stadium and millions at home and still absolutely nail this song says all you need to know about this amazing kid. All while still mourning the loss of his father.
Agreed to you as well, @ Jeff Hendrix...as I was born in '72, I couldn't imagine my son playing bass for his father as professionally...and wouldn't want to. Peace and love to this young but definate man.
I watch this MFer about 5-10 times a day! LOL! I just love Dave’s face encouraging Shane when he begins the zone, and looking impressed and proud of this young man. Shane does play with such passion and intensity. To be so young, I think he is the best and most appropriate competition and legacy at the same time, as his Soooo gifted father was!
The balance he has between being open to channeling the emotions of it, and at the same time being in control of the moment, is astonishing. Especially for someone of his age.
I don’t know what I love more, the focus and rage in his playing or the way the bad keeps checking in with him throughout to keep him going. Found family is a beautiful thing.
As someone who's drummed for 35 years I can say the restraint he showed was amazing...situation like this you tend to get overwhelmed with adrenaline which causes you to A. speed up which isn't great for band and B. run out of gas and forget to breathe etc. He managed it like a pro, not easy
First thing I noticed....how well balanced he was. He was banging the hell out of those drums from the heart. But maintained composure thru it all... And to be able to do that at his age. And probably one of the biggest rock concerts in history!!! Kid definitely has a future in this world. Taylor and everyone is proud of you kid
He was a bit quick at the start, which I’m sure was because of adrenaline. But I noticed on the turn around riff, before the first verse starts, that the boys slowed him down a bit. So it speaks to them overall as a band, to be able to communicate through their playing, what he needs to do. And it speaks to his maturity on the drums to realize it and adjust.
@@MrAdamloring1985 this is something I didn't notice, but it speaks volumes if they can communicate as a band even though this is hard for all of them, but especially for him... And they are not a band. They didn't play this a million times over the years... So to be able to do that is even more amazing.
Think i saw a nod to his Dad with the double kick fills at the end, Taylor did that during the Stacked Actors solo last time they were in Wembley. Thought it was a really nice touch :)
Every couple of months I come back to this video… and every time I tear up. There’s so much heartfelt energy in this performance from Shane and Dave, that it touches my most inner core. I can’t image what this kid must have felt during this song… but he got my utmost respect and compassion. He might be a kid, but he played like man.
@@Rippersauc3 Ok, so that is something you observe and that is what you should say. "You could feel Shane's emotions..." This is ridiculous and embarrassing.
He's hitting those drums like he's hitting death itself for taking his father away. Your passion and anger are so inspiring, please keep going, your father is so proud of you. Way to go man💚
Foo fan or not, this is one of the most moving moments in music history… Goosebumps the whole way through! It hurts as much as it alleviates some of the pain.
i've never listened to the foo fighters on a regular basis, but man this video made me cry. it's just so touching and amazing to me how big of an effect music has on people. how much is brings people together. seeing the crowd made me think of Queen at live aid. just incredible stuff
When the camera angles show everyone (5:09), even the other band members, looking at Shane that's when you realize he was the show. What an emotional performance!
Such a tribute to his father.. I've watched this so much.. plus the pride in Dave's face.. I wish him a memorable childhood and a successful adulthood be it music or something else.. he is definitely talented
@@omflyer1535 I normally don't comment on typos but in this case, I have to, because the mental image is too funny. I hope you can eventually stop balling so hard but I hope you at least enjoy it in the meantime.
This is probably the hundredth time I’ve watched this performance and I’m just in awe every single time. The way Shane is damn near beating the skin off those drums seems incredibly cathartic for him, and I just love how Dave and Pat and Nate are all looking at him with total adoration and making sure he’s okay during the song. I see a bright future ahead for Shane.
I think the most impressive part is doing this on that stage in that environment. Large stages are not something just anyone can play on. The song is easy, but man on that stage in front of that crowd is so intimidating. I definitely could not do that at 16, no way. Imo this makes him such an amazing drummer to do this. ❤️
Honestly, one of the most raw, gritty moments in the history of rock. This kid laid it all out on the table months after his epic father died. This video will haunt and sustain me for life ❤️
So we’ll and beautifully said!!! Thank you Alison there isn’t much to add to your comment. Sums it all up! He made his father and everyone else proud! Taylor must’ve smiled ear to ear his luminous smile to see his son drumming like that!!! Like father like son! Just one add up May God bless Dave Grohl what a special and beautiful human being he is! The love,pride and encouragement he had during Shane’s performance just the same as during his own daughter… if only earth would be full of Daves Grohls…
May every kid who loses their dad have a Dave Grohl who steps into their lives, looks on at their accomplishments with such pride in their eyes, and who supports them without fail. Shane killed it and really honored his father with such a passionate performance. Well done, kid.
Absolutely. May every kid who loses someone like that have a Dave Grohl in their life. Also bless Shane, it takes some serious kahones to go out there and beat up the drums like that in honor of his father. He put everything he had into it and his father would be incredibly proud
This moment is such an unfiltered, raw, vulnerable piece of Rock History. Taylor is gone but he lives within Shane. A very powerful moment for him and I hope he heals from his past.
I hope he gets the Drumeo performance of the year. That had to have been unknown number of people that felt the emotion and significance of Shane’s moment.
Having his son play his drums, the band together through him, and the crowd singing back the chorus - it all carried his soul to heaven. A performance of a lifetime. RIP Taylor Hawkins.
As a self taught drummer for 32 years I can just see the emotions going through Shane as he beats those drums not missing a single beat. "Dad I miss you and I love you" unbelievable performance. Brings me to tears every time I watch it.
@@fargnbastage you have no idea what you're talking about. The official cause of death hasn't even been released yet, so how about you quit acting like you know what his kid is thinking and feeling
@@elbeetlebeasto Pipe down John, he was saying it from his perspective and makes a valid point, I would be extremely angry and pissed off at losing my dad who was only 50, if that was me.
@@elbeetlebeasto REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I'm assuming you caught my post before I made my edit. 1.) The toxicology report showed opiates, amongst a slew of other narcotics. 2.) His heart was larger than it should be....and I eventually read that even without the added drugs, it could have given out either way....which is why I then went back and made the edit. He had a past of using hard drugs. I removed my comment you were responding to because after further reading...and thinking...I decided it's best to give the benefit of the doubt to Taylor. The opiates could have came from a prescription.
Dave and the band constantly looking at Shane to check up on him and support him through that was beautiful. Truly looking out for his best friends family.
I saw this too! It is what it is all about. I literally cried watching the amazing performance from this gifted young man and the family of people who love him. 🥰🤘
You can see the anger, the rage, the pure talent, and when you pay close attention to the part at 03:57, you can see how shane is preparing hiself for the drum solo and gathering the air to breath out all of his emotions. So proud of him.
I’ve never seen this before today. Didn’t even know he played a show with the FF. My heart breaks for that young man, but he’s going places. Seeing his face and mourning absolutely destroyed my heart. I am not a praying type, but I’m sending out all of the vibes to him.
That kid has a bright future behind the drums. He looked incredible, and at such a young age. I guess it helps being so close to 2 of the best drummers of the past 30+ years. RIP Taylor
Everyone is talking about the sons feelings but for the first time in a long time the entire band got to feel his dad on stage again through him. It’s so beautiful, dad is proud.
It’s hard not to sob witnessing this young man kick ass on the drums on such a special song sitting in his dad’s place. RIP Taylor, you sure are missed.🙏💕🥁
I don't know how Shane ever got through this. With his dad being his hero and this song being about an everyday hero, the concert in his honor, and Shane sitting in his dad's seat for the song, I think if it were me, I'd be crying through the whole song. And if I somehow managed to make it through the song, the emotions of everything would have hit me in the end for sure.
i lost my father at similar age to shane and personally physical emotion didn’t come through until my later years. i assume as a natural entertainer and musician shanes instinct to do such shone through in this moment
I've watched this 10x now and still cry. Shane's drumming is his grief, release, anger, disbelief, pride and love of his departed dad combined. Such an amazing talent. Sending healing to the Hawkins and Foo Fighters family.
I find myself watching this from time to time now. Watching that young man’s face play with the angst and rage of a young man enduring a loss like that. I pray for him as he makes his way through life
Definately had his dad's energy with him. Could tell he was letting it all out on those drums for his dad. Taylor would be so proud. Props to Shane for leaving it all out there. The pain, the joy, the sorrow... he spilled his heart out on that stage
@@jeffsmith3350 so you watched the band mates above 10 different types of drugs into his system? I doubt it was intentional, but it’s common knowledge that mixing drugs can kill you.
@@Hornswoop Idk. Dave has always written the songs and we all know he can lay down the drums in the studio. He played the drums on the first 2 albums. Or they could use a touring drummer or special guest drummers for live shows. I could see drummers like Chad Smith, Travis Barker, etc etc filling in on the road. Like AIC did after Layne passed. I personally don't think AIC should've continued on. At least not under the name AIC but Foo Fighters is Dave's band and it always has been. I hope they hang it up but I could see them going on. Maybe even just recording, no touring. Idk we'll see. But I think i can say with some certainty that Taylor's son won't be replacing his father in FF.
@@crossbytedelafade6073 To be honest, I think they've been running on fumes for the past decade or so. Now would be a good time to call it quits. But hey, that's just me 🙃
I just really don't know of any other drumming experience like this ever... there is so much to this, the grief, the agony, the emotion, the tens of thousands of people starring and watching every single hit on the drums, so scrutinizingly so, waiting for this poor kid to potentially crack under the pressure of playing live for the first time and not falling apart. Shane not only kills it with raw passion and complete surgical destruction on the drums, he handles it in true rock star fashion doing everything perfect including the wave to the audience as if it was just another day.... he will be HUGE one day. This was his "coming out" ceremony and he certainly blew the biggest load he could have... and his bandmates (his uncles) and his dad in heaven were just floored like every single human who has watched this video. May god watch over this boy... and protect him from the evils of our world.
@@Telepkr its to get them back on beat guitarist don't usually do this its typically bassist to make sure they're on the same beat or something especially on live sets.
Pat was there when Kurt died, when Dave broke his leg, when Taylor passed away, and I'm sure he was also there when Dave lost Virginia (his mother) a few months ago. Whenever you need Pat, you bet Pat will be there.

We continue to Live through our children. Its the Same with Frank Zappa s Son he looks and Talks like his Dad.
ok
yes
he plays just like his dad! The faces the body language, the skills.. The savage passion of a drummer that his dad exemplified
Shane put a whole lotta heart and a whole lotta soul into that performance. There's no doubt who his hero is, and he sure as heck heard it!

I'm definitely crying

Man. He didn't miss a beat. As someone who lost their father at 10 1/2 years old. I recognize his pain. So happy he got this opportunity! Can only imagine how much of a cathartic experience for him this must be.....!
Edit: 3:50 Watching him pour his pain into his drumming..... Made me ball my eyes out with a smile on my face! 🥲 Grief eats you up inside if you don't let it out!!!!
My grief eats me up everyday. You’re definitely right on releasing it. I just don’t know how. I’m sorry for your loss. I hope your days have been better everyday you wake up😊 I lost my best friend and grandma in the same week. I know what this pain feels like.
The energy Shane is putting in his drumming is fantastic, so much passion. Taylor's probably watching from not too far away.
heaven or hell?
@DepD2234 ironically, most bible verses about subtance use are about alcohol.
Guess a majority of the world is fucked on that one.
@etherealsamael3211 There’s a difference between use and abuse. Abuse can be about the same as suicide. Might as well be a shotgun.
@@DepD2234nowhere is it written in the Bible that if you commit suicide that you will go to hell.
God loves all his children and welcomes them home regardless of the sins their heart have committed because Jesus was the ultimate sacrifice for salvation. But thanks for playing 🤍
I love the way Dave looks at him at the end. So proud. Like he’s seeing Taylor through Shane! Such a great moment!
And all the rest of the band all turned to look at Shane. Loved it.
Taylor was definitely there with his son that night
Hopefully he doesn't kill him too. Dave has a bad record of looking after bandmates.
That was the look of a proud father, maybe not father by blood, but family nonetheless ❤️
It's an overflow of emotions for Dave. The solo that Shane played is Dave's trademark drum solo. It's a look of shock, pride and absolute happiness. It's a wholesome moment
Doesn't matter how many times I watch it, it always gets me teary eyed
im the same
Same, he had a great role model
Same here
same :(
Ja....words!! A event that JUST happened. A beautiful one 🫶
I come here often to watch this video. I am only 22 years old but I loved the Foo Fighters since I was 10 thnx to my dad. This video brings chills to me, Shane has such a talent.
Bro same
Shane beat the piss out of those drums....and he played the role perfectly
bravo, kid
Spot on comment 100% agree
Yup
pumped me up big
He broke the sticks and kept playing
Yes!!!! I’ve watched this video 100 times. It is on point. I always get a lump in my throat and my eyes swell up. I hope we see Shane do some big stuff.
The look of pure joy and pride on Dave’s face during that solo. That boy smashed those drums so loud his dad would have been so proud of him
Pride as much as when Violet sings with him!!
his dad is proud of him*.
Fixed that for you for, parents alive or since passed will always be proud of their kids, and kids should never doubt that :)
Definitely heard him from heaven 👼🏼
@@GenericYTusername fair point. My mistake
@@nate87465we knew what you mean even if appeared to be some dis or else even . When you see ,"fixed it for you" in a response, that person just wants to find something to dig at
You can literally see Shane go through every emotion while playing the drums. He's legendary just like his father.
what a pathetic load of crap, the kids just playing drums.
you don't even know the kids father, he died of a drug overdose??
the most pathetic person in the world is the one that believes they matter when they don't.
get some mental health help!
This song is older than him...such a beautiful, and melancholy passing of the torch.
He's better than his father talent wise. He has the talent of both of them. There's no words for this kind of passion and talent.
How in gods name is Shane holding it together better than i can watching this video, Taylor would be so damn proud
This whole performance is just painfully beautiful and moving. From a drummer who lost his front man, to a front man who lost his drummer, to a son who lost his father. Shane sure is playing with all the pain and love he feels. Absolutely stunning....
He’s also playing with a truckload of talent because somewhere Bonzo is impressed
Also of course he should finish school and whatnot, but what if he played only this song at every show he attended…at least until they found a permanent drummer but even maybe after that? I think that’d be so awesome!
Perfectly said, Josh 💕
This comment is so beautifully written, I'm in tears
That cut real deep. Very well worded.
His face expression is saying a lot.... Amazing performance. His father would be so proud.
ok
He's got a lot of Dave's facial expressions when he is cranking it out. Goosebumps!
I noticed he squints when he hits the drums just like his dad did and hits the drum heads hard AF like Dave does.
He is
The tormenting irony of Dave being a drummer who lost his singer, and now a singer who lost his drummer💔
Damn that’s deep.
Heavy
Now THIS comment hit me, as a bassist who's lost people.... damn.... well put. That put it on a different level. Doubly sad now :(
at least his drummer left backup ❤
Damn bro made me tear up
I havet ever seen a 16 yr old play that professional ever! He is so young and so great, hope he goes to play drums as a career, we'd be the wones losing out of being able to see this magic . Way to go,your the best! ❤😊
That kid played his heart out. I know his dad is proud. I hope he's okay, and I wish him strength in his loss. I hope he never forgets that moment, playing in front of thousands of fans, and he chases it for the rest of his life.
He won't have to chase anything very far.
I really hope it was cathartic for him. I also hope Rufus Taylor is the older brother to him that Taylor was to Rufus that Roger was to Taylor.
@@SuzanneRoberts Did anybody else get the chills when Shane started crashing the opening beats?
He was incredible
Well said. Couldn’t have said it any better myself.
LOVE how Dave looks at him with so much pride
All the band, u can see guitarrist too
they are family
Yes that had too fill his heart with Dave freaking Grohl looking at you with such luck ve and respect in his body movement but especially Dave's eyes
Must in some way help Dave and the rest of the band having there brothers son shine like he used too…they all would of seen this young man grow up and been a part of his life from the start like his dad, you can see how proud and moved Dave was…amazing
They were seeing his son but feeling his dad's presence
Shane hits the drums with the fury of a million suns, raging at a universe who took his dad way too soon. He's got Taylor's passion, accuracy, and energy .. all amped up.

He drums as hard as Dave and as intensely as his dad. The fact that he could get up in front of 75,000 people in the stadium and millions at home and still absolutely nail this song says all you need to know about this amazing kid. All while still mourning the loss of his father.

I think he was just trying to honor his dad

Straight chills...you see the pain in him and trying to release the best way he knows
Kids love to give it their all
i watch this once a month i still get chills everytime
I watch this MFer about 5-10 times a day! LOL! I just love Dave’s face encouraging Shane when he begins the zone, and looking impressed and proud of this young man. Shane does play with such passion and intensity. To be so young, I think he is the best and most appropriate competition and legacy at the same time, as his Soooo gifted father was!
@@Lemus4k it breaks my heart every time because im 17 like man i couldn't even imagine let alone it being such a massive focus globally
The balance he has between being open to channeling the emotions of it, and at the same time being in control of the moment, is astonishing. Especially for someone of his age.
I don’t know what I love more, the focus and rage in his playing or the way the bad keeps checking in with him throughout to keep him going. Found family is a beautiful thing.
Hello there,good day to you, and it’s nice seeing you here
As someone who's drummed for 35 years I can say the restraint he showed was amazing...situation like this you tend to get overwhelmed with adrenaline which causes you to A. speed up which isn't great for band and B. run out of gas and forget to breathe etc. He managed it like a pro, not easy
First thing I noticed....how well balanced he was. He was banging the hell out of those drums from the heart. But maintained composure thru it all...
And to be able to do that at his age. And probably one of the biggest rock concerts in history!!! Kid definitely has a future in this world. Taylor and everyone is proud of you kid
I bet he didn't breath. Bless him amazing
Was thinking this exact thing.
He was a bit quick at the start, which I’m sure was because of adrenaline. But I noticed on the turn around riff, before the first verse starts, that the boys slowed him down a bit. So it speaks to them overall as a band, to be able to communicate through their playing, what he needs to do. And it speaks to his maturity on the drums to realize it and adjust.
@@MrAdamloring1985 this is something I didn't notice, but it speaks volumes if they can communicate as a band even though this is hard for all of them, but especially for him... And they are not a band. They didn't play this a million times over the years... So to be able to do that is even more amazing.
The look on Dave's face near the end as he watches Shane....his smile. Brings a tear to my eye
That "proud uncle" smile is heart warming and heart breaking at the same time.
It’s great isn’t it you can tell he loves that kid
@@rapschick7688 I believe they all loved him!
@@LiPo5000 very true

Like a scene straight out of a movie, Shane absolutely killed it. That ending was something else too.

Think i saw a nod to his Dad with the double kick fills at the end, Taylor did that during the Stacked Actors solo last time they were in Wembley. Thought it was a really nice touch :)
@Hunter Vonnegut Just stop it, man. Have a little class.Go spam someone else's tribute concert.
Every couple of months I come back to this video… and every time I tear up. There’s so much heartfelt energy in this performance from Shane and Dave, that it touches my most inner core.
I can’t image what this kid must have felt during this song… but he got my utmost respect and compassion. He might be a kid, but he played like man.
This may go down as one of the most powerful moments in rock n roll history.

Lost my dad at 16 as well. Lots of mixed feelings. Very hard. Can feel him hitting the drums.

I've been around for 75 years and have never watched or heard anyone play drums so passionately. Beautiful!

Losing taylor was a blow... But knowing we have a Shane eases the pain a little bit
This is the first of me hearing of foo fighters. That is a surreal performance, this kids got an ace up his sleeve
i've never listened to the foo fighters on a regular basis, but man this video made me cry. it's just so touching and amazing to me how big of an effect music has on people. how much is brings people together. seeing the crowd made me think of Queen at live aid. just incredible stuff

That kid was created for that seat. No other way to say it. He was made for it. I truly hope it fills his soul and leads him to health & happiness.
The most powerful version of this song ever performed, IMO. Tears and goosebumps at the same time...
The song he plays on is not lost to us, either. It was the perfect one for him

So sad
@@omflyer1535 I normally don't comment on typos but in this case, I have to, because the mental image is too funny. I hope you can eventually stop balling so hard but I hope you at least enjoy it in the meantime.
This is probably the hundredth time I’ve watched this performance and I’m just in awe every single time. The way Shane is damn near beating the skin off those drums seems incredibly cathartic for him, and I just love how Dave and Pat and Nate are all looking at him with total adoration and making sure he’s okay during the song. I see a bright future ahead for Shane.
Absolutely astounding performance on the drums! You couldn't tell it wasn't his father! Amazing
And it's kind crazy how in the middle of the song he spins the drumstick like his father used to do...woow
They took excellent care of Taylor’s son during this performance, what Brother’s do.
He's playing like a teenager that just lost his Dad.
Too bad there weren't any talks or anything about drug abuse.....Perfect Platform this is going to encourage others to use.......
Holy crap! Incredible! Not an easy song to drum. He completely crushed it. His dad would be so proud.
Taylor is surely proud!!
Exhausting on the pedal for this song, he did great
Amazing!! 👌🏻
Holy degeneracy
I think the most impressive part is doing this on that stage in that environment. Large stages are not something just anyone can play on. The song is easy, but man on that stage in front of that crowd is so intimidating. I definitely could not do that at 16, no way. Imo this makes him such an amazing drummer to do this. ❤️
shane hawkins played so hard for his dad that is his drum sticks breaks at around 4:26 but he keeps on playing ❤❤
Honestly, one of the most raw, gritty moments in the history of rock. This kid laid it all out on the table months after his epic father died. This video will haunt and sustain me for life ❤️
ABSOLUTELY. Just phenomenal and truly emotional.
well said ❤️
Same here brother 🤘🤘🤘🖤💔🤘👍
Touché
So we’ll and beautifully said!!! Thank you Alison there isn’t much to add to your comment. Sums it all up! He made his father and everyone else proud! Taylor must’ve smiled ear to ear his luminous smile to see his son drumming like that!!! Like father like son! Just one add up May God bless Dave Grohl what a special and beautiful human being he is! The love,pride and encouragement he had during Shane’s performance just the same as during his own daughter… if only earth would be full of Daves Grohls…
May every kid who loses their dad have a Dave Grohl who steps into their lives, looks on at their accomplishments with such pride in their eyes, and who supports them without fail. Shane killed it and really honored his father with such a passionate performance. Well done, kid.
@Hunter Vonnegut Bruh
May every kid kick their dads ass at what they are best at, and therefore make this world a better place
Sadly, this isn’t the first kid to lose a dad in Dave’s circle. Damn tough.
Amen 🙏🏼
Absolutely. May every kid who loses someone like that have a Dave Grohl in their life. Also bless Shane, it takes some serious kahones to go out there and beat up the drums like that in honor of his father. He put everything he had into it and his father would be incredibly proud
The salute and exit was gangster. No tears, no speech. Just rocked out loud enough for his dad to hear.

I'm assuming you caught my post before I made my edit.
1.) The toxicology report showed opiates, amongst a slew of other narcotics.
2.) His heart was larger than it should be....and I eventually read that even without the added drugs, it could have given out either way....which is why I then went back and made the edit.
He had a past of using hard drugs. I removed my comment you were responding to because after further reading...and thinking...I decided it's best to give the benefit of the doubt to Taylor.
The opiates could have came from a prescription.
Dave and the band constantly looking at Shane to check up on him and support him through that was beautiful. Truly looking out for his best friends family.
well...they looked to him to sync the guitar with the drumming :-)
That makes me so touched to see the love they feel for eachother. Also watching Shane watching Violet singing. Can´t watch this enough.

With me it started before a word was said.
Just Beautiful. That baby is playing with all his passion and pain as he honors his Daddy 🖤
I don't know how Shane ever got through this. With his dad being his hero and this song being about an everyday hero, the concert in his honor, and Shane sitting in his dad's seat for the song, I think if it were me, I'd be crying through the whole song. And if I somehow managed to make it through the song, the emotions of everything would have hit me in the end for sure.
The look on that kids face says it all he’s upset and angry but he’s doing this for himself and all the listeners that miss this hero
Dave smiles at Shane an looks so proud of him as if he is his own child. I imagine this performance went a long way for Shane. What a B.A.

@@Hornswoop Idk. Dave has always written the songs and we all know he can lay down the drums in the studio. He played the drums on the first 2 albums. Or they could use a touring drummer or special guest drummers for live shows. I could see drummers like Chad Smith, Travis Barker, etc etc filling in on the road. Like AIC did after Layne passed. I personally don't think AIC should've continued on. At least not under the name AIC but Foo Fighters is Dave's band and it always has been. I hope they hang it up but I could see them going on. Maybe even just recording, no touring. Idk we'll see. But I think i can say with some certainty that Taylor's son won't be replacing his father in FF.

I just really don't know of any other drumming experience like this ever... there is so much to this, the grief, the agony, the emotion, the tens of thousands of people starring and watching every single hit on the drums, so scrutinizingly so, waiting for this poor kid to potentially crack under the pressure of playing live for the first time and not falling apart. Shane not only kills it with raw passion and complete surgical destruction on the drums, he handles it in true rock star fashion doing everything perfect including the wave to the audience as if it was just another day.... he will be HUGE one day. This was his "coming out" ceremony and he certainly blew the biggest load he could have... and his bandmates (his uncles) and his dad in heaven were just floored like every single human who has watched this video. May god watch over this boy... and protect him from the evils of our world.
This will easily going down as one of the greatest moments in rock history. Shane did his dad so incredibly proud 👏❤️ #taylorhawkins
@@bryangarnet3553 wow, how insensitive of you.
No...it won't
@@tt55899 Freedom of speech sir, you have the right to disagree. But I beg to differ :)
@@lividea cool, you're still wrong though
@@tt55899 Loook at the veiws on the video, I think she's right
I love how the band keeps looking back at Shane to make sure he’s doing alright
You can tell Dave was so proud of him!
They're a family❤️❤️
@@Telepkrshut up
@@Telepkr its to get them back on beat guitarist don't usually do this its typically bassist to make sure they're on the same beat or something especially on live sets.

that brief shot of Pat at 5:27 where he's looking at Shane with so much happiness is genuinely beautiful
That small detail is so wholesome, one of the reason that made this video so beautiful.
At the end of the video Pat grabs Shane and hugs him back stage......Lotta love in that room.
Pat was there when Kurt died, when Dave broke his leg, when Taylor passed away, and I'm sure he was also there when Dave lost Virginia (his mother) a few months ago. Whenever you need Pat, you bet Pat will be there.
Pat seems like the nicest guy. Definitely a staple of the band.
Powerful performance!!!! Well done Shane !!!!!!
5:15 I'm crying 😢
