He was best known as the drummer in the Foo Fighters. But he was a multi instrumentalists, can sing and write music.
He was more than a drummer.

I hope I’m wrong but I just can’t see that Dave Grohl will want the band to continue. Kurt Cobain was bad enough but Dave having known Taylor for 25 years and he was very close to him almost like a brother he will be absolutely devastated.

He wrote this last year -
“Our bond wаs immediаte upon first meeting, аnd with every dаy, every song, аnd every note thаt we ever plаyed together, we grew closer. We were mаde for eаch other, аnd I’m grаteful we met in this life.”
“I’m not аfrаid to sаy thаt our chаnce meeting wаs love аt first sight, igniting а musicаl ‘twin flаme’ thаt still burns to this dаy. We’ve become аn unstoppаble duo, both on аnd offstаge, in seаrch of аny аnd аll аdventure we cаn find.”
Columbia is the best place to go on tour if you are into your drugs I would imagine. Its bad enough for family and friends when you lose someone, hopefully it will not be a death that is drug or depression related RIP seemed a decent bloke
Someone like Taylor Hawkins doesn't need to go to Colombia to get drugs, he'd get just as good stuff at any big hollywood party.
The reason they're there is every big band does basically the same South American tour. They all play Rio, Sao Paolo, Buenos Aires, Santiago, Bogota, Lima. Usually they time it to hit the big festivals which end up having almost identical lineups from one week to another in Chile, Colombia and Brazil.
Those are going on over this month and why Foo Fighters and a bunch of other bands are in South America right now - The Strokes are doing an identical tour.

It was a bit tongue in cheek mate as Colombia is associated with drugs, nevertheless it is another sad loss for the world of music. It seems the talented ones go early. That's why McCartney is still alive and kickingSomeone like Taylor Hawkins doesn't need to go to Colombia to get drugs, he'd get just as good stuff at any big hollywood party.

Don't know if it was drugs but if it was, what a fucking waste

I'd say it's a possibility, given his chequered past, which he's freely discussed.Don't know if it was drugs but if it was, what a fucking waste
Just one more thing...It’s COLOMBIA
Great band, great drummer, such a shame.
RIP Taylor
Fucking hell. At aged 50.and with kids you'd think he'd have known better and got the wild days out of his system.
