Welcome to the Letterman TH-cam Channel, home to all your favorite clips from Late Night and Late Show - as well as conversations with the writers, producers and performers who helped make it all happen. These highlights have been artisanly-produced, carefully-curated, and chosen completely at random by an old computer that used to pick numbers for the New York Lotto back in the 90’s.

RIP Taylor, one of the best drummers in recent rock history & a man who seemed like a delight to be around, he’ll definitely be missed

[@HipsterDoofus100]

and a druggie

[@beethovensoup]

of the millennium so far he’s the best… by far. huge inspiration on me as a human and drummer. rip taylor

[@worldsaway-uy6zt]

One of the greatest in history. Take out "recent" and "rock", and it's much more accurate.

[@MuzzikLvr]

A quarantine joke in 2014?!? Dave and his writers always were ahead of their time.

[@Whatever22ification]

RIP Taylor, you're the reason why I started drumming. I'm devistated.

[@amyroseplusone]

I'm seeing your comment and seeing it was a year ago. I can't believe it. I would buy his cookbook.

[@DanPMH]

😭RIP Taylor Hawkins...for some reason I'm so lost in time that I am seeking an episode of Letterman to console me for this loss of one of the greatest musicians of all time, because only Dave would understand the MAGNITUDE of this loss. ♥️

[@SaintMartins]

I feel bad for guitarist Pat Smear. 1st, with The Germs he lost his singer Darby Crash. 2nd, after joining Nirvana's touring band a year later Kurt Cobain dies. 3rd, now with the Foo fighters his drummer Taylor Hawkins dies.

[@Nathan-gd7xq]

mthrfckr is the one killing them

[@BFRaiders]

RIP Taylor! The Foos won't be the same without you. You were the beating heart of the band man. We'll miss you! 😭

[@MedalionDS9]

R.I.P. Taylor Hawkins... the Foo Fighters were so great during my formative years in the 90's. Taylor seemed like a really cool guy, funny, enthusiastic, matched with Dave excellently, he even loved Oasis and the Gallaghers, what a dude!

[@CJFerg81]

Man, Pat and Alan really had a moment there 😂
(Also, RIP Taylor)

[@pcoccoli]

RIP Alan, too. He passed away in October 2021.

[@SusannTx]

That was so damn funny.

[@SylvainFluet]

After Neil Peart, we lose Taylor, I'm speechless. Sad day for rock'n roll, he was such a great drummer and a funny guy.

[@sebastiantaylor2600]

Joey Jordison and Charlie Watts between them.

[@Ariel_thenotsolittlemermaid]

We lost many great drummers in the last few years. Besides the ones people already mentioned in the replies, we also lost Vinnie Paul and Alan White- and probably so many others that I don't know about/ can't remember. It's insane.

[@c.michellesparks2925]

RIP Taylor and thank you Letterman Show.

[@spacenerd9499]

i love every one of these people on the show and in the band. nothing will be the same again

[@jamisoncarlson6003]

God almighty, I cannot believe that Taylor has left us!!! RIP to one of the greatest drummers ever!! Taylor will be sorely missed but never to be forgotten!!!

[@Ariel_thenotsolittlemermaid]

1:58 Pat's probably thinking 'should I tell him it's just a stage name?'

[@agalleyne]

Bittersweet timing for this clip. R.I.P. Taylor. 🥁

[@daviddelgado8078]

RIP Taylor. One of the greatest and most underrated drummers ever!!

[@fretbuzz59]

Underrated? 🤷‍♂

[@ChrisS-if7ev]

One of the classier bands out there, as far as I know. RIP Taylor!

[@alvinknight32]

So sad to hear Taylor Hawkins' passing. RIP.

[@matthewpaluch777]

Rest easy Taylor, thank you for sharing your beautiful gifts with us!

[@javierphenomenal278]

I just heard Taylor Hawkins the drummer of foo fighters passed away. He was still too young to be gone this early. Man he was 50 years old. R.i.p Taylor Hawkins.

[@vingaetano]

Bless you, Taylor. I never missed an episode when the Foo Fighters were on. 😢

[@lindataggart2087]

I can't stop thinking about this loss.. people die suddenly all the time happening right now... But because we got to see the footage of them just before this happened.. and their concerts before coming back.. the excitement of just being back from covid.. The thrill of the audience the thrill from the guys performing.. the happiness.. the love... I keep picturing Dave at home and the rest of the guys.. but specifically Dave just because I saw so much of him during the pandemic doing the drum off with the little girl drummer.. interviews with his mom after the book he wrote about rocker's mother's... I'm not sure how that guy's going to get back from this one...

[@heathergray4223]

I am gut punched. RIP Taylor💔

[@williehew]

If you own all the Live At Letterman recordings, the Foo’s set was absolutely amazing… Just a thought 🙏 RIP Taylor

[@zadescrivner]

R.I.P. Taylor Hawkins 😢

[@ELMS]

Love the top tens. Such excellent writing.

[@privatepenguin3137]

This going up on the channel so quickly has the classic touch of Don Giller! Nice work. R.I.P. Taylor. One of the last true rockers. 😪

[@briargoatkilla]

Listen to Sonic Highways start to finish without stopping. It will be your favorite Foo Fighters album.

[@marvalstith2749]

Check out his tweet.

People in another channel claiming that he died from the vaccine are especially cruel and ignorant.
