In memory of the first anniversary of the passing of Taylor Hawkins on March 25, we’re looking back on the two tribute concerts organized by the Foo Fighters. The London and Los Angeles shows were incredible events full of light and love. They were reflections of Hawkins, himself. Foo fans the world over will forever miss and remember one incredible drummer and ambassador for rock music.

We send our thoughts to the family and friends of Taylor Hawkins on this anniversary and every day they miss the unique force he was.


The Los Angeles installment of the Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concert took place last night (September 27) before a packed crowd inside the Kia Forum.

Like the London installment at Wembly Stadium, the show featured an all-star lineup of Hawkins’ friends, peers and idols paying tribute to the late Foo Fighters drummer who died in March at age 50.

Scroll below to see the complete setlist and fan-shot video from the epic show.
