I'm still processing this. The whole situation, just so sad

Foo Fighters have cancelled all remaining tour dates. I definitely think the future of the band is seriously in question, which I understand entirely, Taylor ended up meaning so much more than just a drummer to those guys

If there's one silver lining in all of this, it's that Taylor got to literally live his dream in the tragically short life he had.
Seeing him perform in person as I did in 2018 was a real privilege
