Taylor Hawkins Foo Fighters

Yeah, it’s killed the buzz here at the hotel, but it was a great day in Bogata otherwise.
 
So Rockifukduh had the coroner phone him? What odds did your bookie give - evens?

Taylor had demons, he used heroin and handfuls of other drugs in the past - there are plenty of old rockers that did, but that means nothing to us the audience. He smoked cigarettes too, drank booze, used up air - wow amazing. I'll remember him for the huge smile at the back of the set - a joyous presence and a fucking gorgeous dude :rose:
 
There are no reports of drug use (so far).

While an exact cause of death has yet to be determined, health officials in the Bogota, Colombia area issued a statement overnight confirming
that emergency services were dispatched to the hotel where Hawkins was staying at to attend to a patient complaining of ‘chest pain’. Responding EMTs conducted resuscitative measures upon arrival, but were unsuccessful in their attempts.
