If they do this for you when you die, that was a life well lived. Chills.

[RobertJohnson-bjlk]

Kind of sad, but very beautiful. The original reason why this Rocklin’ 1000 group formed in 2015 was to ask the Foo Fighters to come play in Cesena, Italy🇮🇹. And here they are paying a tribute to Taylor and FF.

[sebastienfeltz]

As a huge fan of FF, Dave and Taylor, I am so proud to be one of the 216 drummers who played this song at the Stade de France. RIP Taylor, our hero, we miss you so much 😢🤘! And thanks Rockin’1000 😘

Had goosebumps playing this tribute with all my Rockin'1000' family.
Great moment of the show.
We'll never forget you Taylor ! ✊🏻

It sucks that tragedy brings out such beauty. Very well done and fitting tribute. I bet Dave and the rest of the band loved it too.

I Met Taylor about 15 years ago and through a confluence of circumstances ended up having dinner and a long conversation with him. He was kinder to me than he had any obligation to be and it makes me think that every good word or kind story I heard about the guy is probably true. I had never been emotional about a celebrity dying until that Friday night that I heard Taylor died. I was a wreck for a while and ever since then I don’t think a day has passed where I haven’t thought about his music, his demeanor and how he remembered me when I saw him again down the road about a month after I met him the first time but I wasn’t able to stay after a Coattail Riders show and he greeted me with a “dude, what the hell, I thought we were going to hang out after the show”. I made sure to stay after the show that night and he treated me like an old friend. The world lost a phenomenal musician, but I think we lost an even better guy.

Taylor impacted musicians and non musicians alike. His spirit and talent were just special. A very beautiful tribute!

[byronsbrigades]

It’s been a pleasure to perform in this amazing Stadium and be part of this amazing tribute to the great Taylor Hawkins, Thank you Rockin’1000 for to make it happen 🖤

[adh]

I’ve watched this now on repeat. It makes me cry, gives me goosebumps and makes me feel that Taylor would have loved to be a part of this. I’m sure he’s looking down with a smile. He is and will be missed, but his music will never be forgotten. Rest in beats and peace Taylor. 💔💔🎼🎼🥁🥁

[markmoffat]

Perfect. No ads. No long intro. Just an incredible tribute for the best drummer of our generation.

Rest In Peace, Taylor.

[elizabethmcleod]

I sure hope Taylor’s family has seen this. Taylor would be so honoured and touched. Magic video.

[reuntotolegend]

I was there as a drummer, it was amazing 🤩 !! Lots of emotion in this song 😢 RIP Taylor, te voilà désormais au Panthéon des batteurs légendaires aux côtés de Jeff Porcaro, Charlie Watts, John Bonham, Keith Moon...Long life to Rockin'1000 !! 🤘🤘🤘🤘

[russellh]

I still can't watch with dry eyes. Rock on Taylor, miss you mate.

[FauxFightersUSA]

So freaking emotional!! Chills up and down our arms!! We are all tearing up!! Taylor Hawkins was so loved by so many!! Thank you everyone involved!!

[sumzdad]

It's so many voices... Once you all start singing, almost a minute in, anyone could feel the emotion as loud as the words. This looks like it was a concert where everyone was in the band, like the entirety of the "audience" was musically talented and performed at the show they went to go see, with as much grace and discipline as the band they went to see, every single person rocked that night.
