Taylor Hawkins: At Guitar Center - Goodbye Alanis, Hello Grohl

- Although he's the idol of millions for his drumming prowess, Taylor Hawkins' first rock 'n' roll dreams didn't focus on the drums; rather, they were centered on the guitar because, as he puts it, "Nobody looks at the drummer."
RIP Taylor, this is so hard to process. Thanks for all the great music.
I agree. It is hard to process. When Charlie Watts died, it was difficult but he was 80. This is not right, somehow. The order of things is messed up. I am glad that he lives on through the music.
It is just unbelievable that Taylor is not here on earth anymore. I am still in shock a week later. I always thought that dave g. was leading a charmed life, doing so much loving life and now he has lost his best friend and brother.
I m so sad for Taylor,s wife and kids, his parents,etc.
You were a beautiful presence while you were here.
Keep on drumming wherever you are now.💔💔💔
He's right. Dave is a drummer extraordinare. But then, so is Taylor. Taylor never let his ego get control. He remained humble and respectful throughout his entire career.
We love you man. We love you. 💔
Goodbye Taylor Hawkins, you are a legend! Thank you for the music. May your soul rest in peace.
"We just knew automatically that we should be in a band together and be best friends."
-Taylor Hawkins discusses his transition from backing Alanis Morissette to playing with Dave Grohl and Foo Fighters at Guitar Center in 2010.
Reminds me of the movie Step Brothers, "did we just become best friends?"
hey, can you guys send me over a box set of zildjian k's? I've been thinking about buying one but I figured it'd be easier to just have you guys send me one instead...k, thx, bye : )
Which guitar center was this filmed at?
Now that he is gone , this particular sentence made me burst in tears. Losing a best friend is the worst. It never heals. R.I.P Taylor Hawkins, stay strong Dave.
I started noticing when musicians my age began dieing, but these guys dieing that were born in the late 60s on into the 70s is just friggin crazy. Who would have ever though Keith Richard's, and Ozzie would ever outlive Taylor Hawkins, and Cris Cornell. There is just something wrong with that.
Don’t rule out the snakebite.
That first incarnation of Alanis’s band was raw and amazing
Yeah they were ! Saw them August of 95 . Just before she exploded . Playing in a tiny club in Rhode Island , that held 200 people max !
Yes Chris Chaney played bass then , then went on to Janes Addiction ,
Going all the way back to the 90s whenever I'd see this dude I'd always think no one is having more fun than that guy. He just had that energy. Prayers to the family❤
Seemed like a decent cat and his energy was infectious. Saw them twice He was a “happy to be there” type dude. As Richard Manuel from The Band said, I’ll be happy just to break even. Lol
I miss him already. I bet this is so hard for Foo Fighters to process, especially dave. Fly high and rest easy Taylor. Thank you for everything. 🤍🕊️
Taylor Hawkins - excellent drummer but also favorite Foo member - love your parts in all the FF vids and Dave knows how much you add to the band beyond music. You're one f*)$^ cool dude man!!
I remember watching Taylor play with Allanis Morissette. He had so much energy, looked like he was having a ball, and was entertaining as all get out to watch play. He's still that way!
We miss you Taylor. ❤️
He and Dave could easily be brothers.
They are
no they have different parents so its impossible 😐
This Is Not For You...well no shit!
@@MikaelLewisify Therefore they couldn't easily be brothers. As a matter of fact they couldn't at all
This Is Not For You...ok, Captain Literal...Thanks for clearing that up.
Tayler Hawkins and Dave Grohl.........”brothers from another mother “.........I Love Those Guys✌️
Soulmates ♥️
Dave will be nothing without Taylor.. And Dave knows it..
Rest in peace you lovely man xx
Why are drummers and bass players always the coolest guys in a band?
Rest Easy Taylor.....
I must say, and I say this without being a huge Foo Fighters "fan" per se, ...but I immediately see the connection between Hawkins and Dave Grohl. You can tell they have great chemistry and genuinely like each other like, as Taylor says in this interview, "best friends". Nice to see two guys having so much fun.
Soulmate brothers!!! 4ever😢😞
I love Alanis Morissette and I love the Foo Fighters so to me it's a win-win great music came from both
Or tag team wrestling or a pillow fight
Love this band so much , been listening to them since they started.
There are so many great drummers all with their own style, I don't think it's possible to say one is the best. For my personal taste I do love Dave Grohl's drumming. I think Taylor was the perfect fit and match for Dave and the Foo Fighters. I think Taylor has the perfect skills to match Dave and play the way Dave wants the drums to sound like. Obviously he does or Dave would have got a new drummer.
7 years later lol. Well he kind of said it here, Dave will tell him many times what to play. Just like Paul with Ringo lol
One of the best rock drummers of our time
Saw Taylor play with Alanis in Seoul, South Korea in 1996. I loved his style then, and love it now. Though back then, he took a lot more liberty in his drumming with Alanis and it showed. It was a great show.
Wow! I never knew Alanis played in Seoul. Was it expensive?
Murray Lindsay, from what I remember it was. Because it was over 20 years ago, I'd say it was probably close to $100 back then so for the time, it was expensive. however, there were several of us Americans there and we were in the second row. I remember them covering ABBA's, "Take a Chance On Me" and nailed it. Phenomenal rendition. that same year in Seoul I also saw Bush and Eric Clapton. Two other fantastic shows. The Koreans really responded well to the US music.

His intention of not being egoistic about the drum parts sounds like freedom.
Crush on this guy . . . Sweet soul 💙😇💙
One of those best transfers and decisions of a lifetime
I play drums, and I remember when he played w/ Alanis! Even though he was in the back, his stage presence was AMAZING! Let alone his technique, and well...dude’s amazing!
I know everyone always compares his look to Kurt Cobain but I think he actually looks like Dave in a weird way.
TraceVandal for me he is Dave made of vanilla 😂😂
I've always had a theory that a dog owner eventually ends up looking a litle bit like his dog, maybe its a similar case x)
@Tyler Leyden Ahaha that would be awesome dude! Go for it
That is..... ILLUMINATI CONFIRMED
Taylor looks like Peter Dinklage
if you listen closely to the old drummer and then Taylors drumming the difference is amazing. on same songs done by the old drummer you can hear a subtle difference in beats through out the song, Taylor is spot on every time, no matter if playing on tour or in a garage, the music is much better now.
Taylor is such a cool dude. Awesome video!
Jagged Little Pill is one of my favorite albums of all time.
Dave and Taylor sweet history of love 😘 for years love and attraction at first sight
They are the Brokeback Mountain of pop.
Jajjajajajjaja xd😆😙
I read that wrong at first and I was like yeah I love him too.
Man if I couldve somehow been with him and seen what he was going through I wouldve done anything to keep him safe. Such a great guy and such a huge loss to the world of music. RIP brother
I told a kid a few years back that Taylor used to play for AM, blew his effin mind😆
I got to see Taylor playing drums for Alanis at small club gig just before she got HUGE
Such a good guy.
I believe that Dave saw something in Taylor that he had not seen or felt in any man, there is a magnificent complicity in their relationship as if it were of a man and a woman most likely to end up together until death do them part
So did like she remind you, of the mess you left when you went away?
That's rich
The reason why Taylor is unique is he has a jazz - rock style of playing.
not really........
I like this guy and the band is amazing
Particular skills lol - to say the least - to recreate "jagged little pill" live during that era. Alanis also said on Spotify Landmark that Taylor was like her brother, her engine and that he used to be very empathic with her during that long tour and so.... She was devastated when he left but she also admits and can see clearly now that he was born to play with the Foo Fighters... no doubt about it.
😯
Maybe she had a crush on him🥁🤔
@@tonym.villacruzvillacruz5728 You can see this very clear in her song called "Unsent" (the Demo Version) She sings "Dear Taylor I missed you a lot. There was a period of time when I was too mad to even bring up
your name and it killed me to hear you discount the time we spent together I knew all along ....
That we had different tastes in moderations and we couldn't hang out forever and while it lasted
It was hilarious ..."
I love that no matter what, no matter what the topic or video for that matter, any video I ever watch on youtube has an argument in the top comments... So if the video isn't what I thought it was going to be, I can just scroll down and be entertained further. Keep up the fantastic work fellow youtubers!
Rest In Peace homie
When you toured with Alanis morissette's band. The songs really gave you the opportunity to showcased your drumming skills. That was extremely professional drumming when you on that tour.
I've looked at the drummer ever since I can remember looking at something...
thakrak He is a character isn’t he.
R.I.P. Taylor Hawkins😢💔1971-2022
Taylor Hawkins left the biggest band on Earth for the biggest band on Earth. Of course, he didn't know the Foo Fighters would become what they are but talk about a win/win.
this is so cool. he seems like a really nice and cool guy. i wanna meet taylor hawkins!
I can’t wait to hear him play drums with the Foofighters! I bet it will be awesome
I remember when Alannis Morissette was a teen pop singer... she even had Matt LeBlanc in her video.
Yeah! I think she was a teen pop singer back in the early nineties when she had Matt LeBlanc in her video "Walk Away" in Paris, France. She wanted to be a rock star back in the mid-nineties when she met Nick Lashley, Jesse Tobias, Chris Chaney and Taylor Hawkins.
i don't necessarily really rate the Foo Fighters musically, but I fucking love them. They're the "People's" band IMO.
Joe King God, you nailed it. They put so much energy into their concerts. They always include the audience, Dave is engaging and down to earth. That’s what people like and that’s a big part of what makes them good.......besides the fact that Dave Grohl is the Worlds Best Headbanger ✌️
I dont know why but I dont like how Dave is all engaging and all nice all the time. It takes effort and its respectable behavior but I like more the Nirvana Dave being all awkward and funny at the same time. being all nice all the time is not natural. Its more of an effort and an act seriously. I like natural people more. The ones that act like they are naturally alone by themselves.
I dont know there is an element of fakeness in being all engaging super nice and shit. Nobody is that nice naturally. Its commendable but as Ive said - I like people the most when they act the way they act just after getting up from sleep
RoboTube What a bizarre answer. Save us as real as it gets. Ever see him in interviews? .
@@robotube7361 I know what you mean, there is super nice Dave grohl when the cameras on and then there is Mr business Dave ghrol, sacking drummers and stuff
@@JG-nx3jg omg,he don't kill people,he just in love with Taylor and can't replace him, old drummer was just not for this band,chill. Now Taylor pay a very high price for being a legend. Do you want pay more than 20 years to people,who don't deserve you?I don't think so, never hold on to the work,that doesn't intended for you.
I play all the instruments as well. I probably still play guitar or bass better than drums, but once again..... Finding a drummer that is not a flakey bastard is a difficult one. So, here I am, still drumming after 5 years with my band.
90% of drummers I met (In my country) are totally great guys.. but, yeah, We can't be all good. Always have to be that douchebag drummer..
Kris Michalsky hahaha it's true man.
any good drummer will do. the songwriter is the only guy that matters in any band.
I, I, I, Me, me, me.
I knew a guy who was a great musician and a drummer as well. I was a bit shocked being introduced to his work ethic and perhaps enthusiasm. I asked him what was the best part playing live music. He said, "when it is over."
He was basically a touring drummer for Alanis and Sass Jordan before that, basically a drummer for hire, so it makes sense he'd want to leave her to join a real band
when they had Jones and Page on stage and he sung rock and roll he killed my ears and the song,,bliah
Miss him forever
Foo is a band,that connect with the fans,just as the fans connect with the fighters,ya know
You gotta fight
For your right
To Foooooo Fight!
dear person... I hope he felt how excellent he was...
Gorgeous :)
it's difficult to find a drummer who will just play what is required for the song.
Dave Grohl was so single- minded in what he wants to hear out of his accomplished musicians in creating the FF "sound" (when he wanted to redo the drums on his record with his own) - (The Making of Sonic Highways proves that too) So, speaking of just how Taylor is perfect for him for the last 20 years.. This drummer is definitely the best of the best , he just knows his craft (has great charisma) plus Dave's "interaction" with him in studios & live performances, just add to the dynamism. Thank you for sharing this :)
Football fighters
Taylor Hawkins and Dave Grohl. The greatest bromance in history
😍💘
I love to see musicians who love what they do and are so down to earth like Taylor and Dave. They are a inspiration for young musicians and drummers in an industry full of self obsessed idiots.
A PERFECT FIT
Still in disbelief he’s passed away I just hope it’s a bad dream RIP Taylor 🙏🏻💔
RIP Taylor 😢 😭 💔 💔 💔
hes even more amazing then i thought
A True Musician!!!
I'm not even the biggest fan ... thinking to myself , what a terrible loss this must be for you real fans out there ,he is one likable dude !! ..Get some rest Taylor ...perhaps I'll see ya in the morning ..//////// Alanis M was my old girlfriend's favorite back then .. what a trip
🎸 ROCK in peace
Rock In Paradise brother :'(
QEPD TAILOR HAWKING su familia la banda amigos y fans gracias por su música
Dave and Taylor are both talented drummers
Blink twice, Taylor. We got you, bro.
Ha. I always thought he was Dave's brother! They look very similar
I saw this on UA-cam, funnily enough.
he seemed to be searching for the perfect words.
They look like brothers !
Yeah soulmates ♥️ Dave and Taylor
Didn't Flea and Dave Navarro play on jagged little pill ? Was Taylor on the album too ?
No, album was done before they put the band together
R.I.P legend…
Every day my favorite band gets closer and closer to being the Foo Fighters
I honesty thought, at first glance in the past, that Dave and Tayler where actually brothers. Besides that both play drums, they look veeeery much alike. It's so awesome that they are best friends, man.
Damn 2 yrs already?! R.I.P.
taylor is a great drummer
It's very much a team effort = He tells me what to play.
Rip Taylor Hawkins
Do you know that Taylor Hawkins met Alanis Morissette, Nick Lashley, Jesse Tobias and Chris Chaney back in 1995. He wanted to play with them on Alanis' "Jagged Little Pill" tour from April 1995 to December 1996. They had fun together. After the last show at the Richardson Field in Honolulu, Hawaii on December the fourteenth 1996, he said goodbye to them. He and Jesse had left Alanis, Nick and Chris. And it was right before Taylor joined the Foo Fighters back in 1997.
Are you kidding me? How could anybody not like Dave?
The most underrated drummer of modern rock, period.
God damned dope will get u every time....R I P, TH.
or the vac that put my friend in the hospital for a while after a bad reaction
which Guitar Center was this filmed in?
Rip Taylor
I don’t care for FF (besides “Everlong” 😉) but I got mad respect for what they’ve accomplished and their solid attitude
Whether the FF stuff is pretty simplistic and over exsposed or not, the guy is a truly good drummer.
He learned from the listening to Copeland, Peart and Taylor etc..
get it right.
Which guitar center? Looks just like my local Guitar Center!
She is on 25th Anniversary Tour, too bad he didn't get the call to make a cameo. He should do it when it hits LA.
Unpopular opinion: Taylor actually has better chops than Dave
Rip Taylor 💔💔💔
Good thing he went with the Foo Fighters because Alanis took that huge 15 year break
An 10 years ago video , cool history
are those plastic hole drums in the middle? Nobody uses drums like that. Even though I thought of it.
It was either Taylor or me... He won this one, fair game.
