    I played drums as a kid, we used to cover Nirvana songs. I joined the army at 16 and never played the drums again, sold them. I watched the Taylor Hawkins tribute gig from Wembley on TV. Next day, I went into Glasgow (I'm Scottish) and spent £7.500 on a brand new Pearl drum kit. Thank you Dave Grohl, and thanks to Taylor, you reinspired me again man. God bless you.

    I'm a video tech and was blessed to have toured with these guys in '18. They are fantastic musicians and they absolutely love to perform. All stadium shows. No warm up or opening act. Just the Foo Fighters playing rock and roll for three and a half hours. I am sure they miss touring as we all do. Here's to David and all the guys who pour their heart and soul out on stage for our enjoyment. We can't wait to see you again. Live, with a rabid crowd and a full rig

    During the lockdown in 2020, I spent the nights, dark to dawn, watching music videos, often just wherever RUclips took me. Often the classic rock that evokes the memories and has been most of life’s soundtrack.
    I was raising kids when Nirvana dropped, and while I was aware of them the music didn’t resonate with me then. It does today. When Kurt died, and Foo Fighters were born, my kids were old enough that Foo Fighters was prominent in their playlists. Again, at first, Foo Fighters didn’t resonate. But then American Pie and East Great Falls landed in our home, and suddenly Times Like These clicked. And I started listening to Foo Fighters with the kids. And some others, too, but these guys, as musicians, and performers and artists, have gotten into my blood.
    So back to the lockdown. I found this video one night and fell in love with it. I’ve been to a lot of concerts, love the crowd energy, and I don’t know how many people were in the largest concert audience I was ever in, but it wasn’t anywhere near the number that’s in this video, and I had those moments when I wondered: will we ever see that again?
    I got a lot of energy, a lot of hope, and lived many good memories watching this video then. And it’s almost two years later, I’ve gone back to it a few times. I love watching Dave play to the crowd, but I really love watching Taylor on the drum kit. Energy, emotion, impeccable timing and beat, and he shows he’s having a blast. I look for him in every Foo Fighters video, and listen for him in every song.
    I’ve seen many fantastic, iconic drummers play, and I know millions of other folks have also seen and heard fantastic drummers. And I won’t say Taylor was the GOAT, I’m not qualified to judge that. But I do say, nobody I ever saw or heard was more fun to watch and hear than Taylor, and I’m stunningly sad I never got to experience his art in person.
    Today, Taylor Hawkins l, I thank you, and my hat is off to you.

Si uno siente mucho su pérdida cómo será Dave y las personas cercanas ... Es entendible por qué ésta canción le pega tan duro a Dave; es la que le recuerda a sus amados Virginia y Taylor, y la versión que tienen ahora con Rami rompiéndola en los teclados es mucho más conmovedora aún.
    ¡Los queremos Virginia y Taylor!
    ¡Larga vida a los Foo Fighters! ♥️🍷

    I was 17 when I went to Reading in 2012. It was a fantastic weekend with some crazy talented bands, because Glasto wasn’t on that year so the likes of the Cure, Kasabian, Coheed, The Black Keys, Paramore and all sorts were there. This set however, last band on the Sunday night, main stage. Wow, this blew me away. This song though, to this day, this song that we’re all watching right now, has stayed with me since. After the show, people were chanting Foo tunes as we made our way back to the campsite. I’ve had ups and downs since, but I come back here once in a while and remind myself that this is what life is all about. Friends, music and a good fucking time. I’ll never forget it.

      On the whole I agree with your assertion, however. Tears are a response to deep emotional stimulus with the exception of irritants.
      Tears of joy or sadness. Music can bring people together but simultaneously cause annoyance in others. Church bells on a Sunday morning when recovering from a hangover. Curse those bloody bells! Or the muslim call to prayer; strangely hypnotic to the point of convincing the worshippers that killing other people, especially other muslims and everyone else is a good thing to do, coz God told 'em it's a good idea. Know what I do? open the fuckin' windows and play this...

    To see people deeply touched by your music... Wether it's remembering good times or sad memories about a lost love.
    I think music is so much a part of people in many ways.
    We are blessed to have or to have had the Dave Grohl's, and Chris Cornell's etc...
    I remember a long time ago in the mid seventies seeing an interview with Ronnie Van Zant and he was on his little Bass Boat fishing when a News Reporter asked him why he does what he does. He said "To see thousands of people get up and put their hands together for a song that you wrote, to me that's what it's all about. That's what makes me keep coming back".
    Music is therapy for the soul.

    Met Dave twice. Once in 1992 just as Nirvana was going platinum around the world. The as Foo Fighters toured with Sonic Youth in 1996. Both times, he was pretty much this guy - genuine in spirit, welcoming, appreciative and for a person who could be swallowed by the "rockness of his stardom" (sarcasm), he was extraordinarily real and humble. He's really come into his own person now... confident and mellow and I'm happy he's where he is now. Would be amazing to meet him again. So adorable that he tours with his family.
