Fucking hell. I can't believe this. I attended one of the Foo Fighters concerts in Manchester a couple of years ago and got to see them pretty up close. Taylor was a fantastic drummer.

His last gig, his last song.

Everyone at Lollapalooza Argentina, 5 days ago...

I am not a huge fan of Foo Fighters other than one or two songs so I don't know history of Taylor. I just know Dave Grohl is a good person and used to be in Nirvana.

 

However, I do know this is a massive upset for those in the rock music industry considering the tributes pouring in. I'm sure the rest of their South American tour will be cancelled/postponed so they can grieve.

Colombian authorities have released new details regarding Taylor Hawkins’ death. An ambulance was called to the hotel Hawkins was staying at, reporting a guest with “chest pains”. Emergency responders tried but failed to resuscitate Hawkins, and he was pronounced dead. https://www.justjared.com/2022/03/26/new-details-emerge-about-taylor-hawkins-untimely-death/

Now that Windy City Deadpool and May's Deathlist Cup teams have locked it's safe to bring this to everyone's attention:

Spinal Tap and Atomic Rooster drummer, Ric Parnell, has entered hospice care and seems to have very little time left


I doubted highly I could sneak in a solo but had no choice in a VERY weak class of Cup options than to make him my obvious Joker.  Ah well.

Tommy McConnell, drummer and songwriter with the US band Skyy, reportedly dead: https://www.soultracks.com/story-tommy-mcconnell-skyy-dies

 

Probably their best known hit Stateside was their 1981 #26 Billboard charting Call Me. However, not as successful in the UK, their highest chart position being #67 in January 1982 with the fairly anodyne Let's Celebrate (as New York Skyy):

Health update from Alan White, drummer of Yes.

 

Health update on Alan White, currently dead:

https://www.rock-progresivo.com/fallece-alan-white-bateria-de-yes-desde-hace-mas-de-4-decadas/2022/05/amp/

 

I should note that I pasted a spanish link here because the only english link is down.

So there's some fake news potential here, but then he announced just days ago that he would miss the next tour for health reasons.
