Happy Birthday Taylor Hawkins: February 17, 1972

Oliver Taylor Hawkins was born in Fort Worth, Texas, on February 17, 1972. His family moved to Laguna Beach, California, in 1976, where Hawkins grew up. Hawkins was the youngest of three, with an older brother and sister, Jason and Heather. He graduated from Laguna Beach High School in 1990, where he had been friends with current Yes lead vocalist Jon Davison.

Hawkins was known for his drum work with numerous artists such as Alanis Moresett, Yes, Aric Avery, as well as a brief solo career in 2014. But most of all, Hawkins found his fame in punk/rock band The Foo Fighters.

Taylor was always known to wear a smile on his face on and off the stage. Even with the world at his feet, the fame and money never changed him. He lived life to the fullest and enjoyed his career with a passion. That smile of his could brighten any cloudy day.

I'm So Excited To See Them In Their Next Chapter As A Band

It's definitely going to be a big change seeing them play without, Taylor. But I know they're going to play their god damn fucking hearts out. In the words of Dave Grohl "we're in this together, mother fucker"

I'm Both Excited, but Timid On This

I'm absolutely stoked to hear that they see a future within the band without Taylor, but I don't want them to feel like they're pressured into jumping back in the game. Taylor meant the world to us as well as the rest of the band. But if they feel like they're entering a phase to start to move on, they have my unwavering support.
