Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins died unexpectedly on March 25. He was just 50 years old.

The preliminary urinalysis revealed a toxic combination of opioids, “benzos” (also known as “downers”), antidepressants, and tetrahydrocannabinol (marijuana), likely indicating an accidental overdose.
Judging from the outpouring of sympathy, he was universally loved by both fans and the biggest names in the industry alike — Ozzy Osbourne, Liam Gallagher, Tony Iommi, Axl Rose, Lenny Kravitz, Brian May, Ringo Starr, Mick Jagger and Elton John not least among them.

Naturally he will be missed, and perhaps Dave himself put it best in his book The Storyteller: Tales of Life and Music, released last year…
