Foo Fighters perform Everlong for the last time with Taylor Hawkins

March 26, 2022 | <3 Lauren

The world is reeling from the shocking news that Taylor Hawkins, drummer for the Foo Fighters passed away last night at the age of 50. Little is known outside of the statement released by the band:

Five days prior to his passing, Foo Fighters played Lollapalooza Argentina and closed what is now the last set with Taylor, with Everlong.

According to Rolling Stone when Hawkins died, the Foo Fighters were in Colombia preparing to play at the Estéreo Picnic festival on the same bill as the Strokes, J. Balvin, and the Libertines. Their last gig with the drummer took place five days earlier, on March 20th at Lollapalooza Argentina. The 19-song show featured Hawkins singing lead on Queen’s “Somebody to Love,” a cover of Jane’s Addiction’s “Been Caught Stealing” with special guest Perry Farrell, and a final encore of “Everlong.”

Rest in Peace sweet Taylor <3 Lauren
