Taylor Hawkins Grammy Tribute Gets Mixed Reaction on Twitter

  When Amy Winehouse died, the @RecordingAcad had people perform her music. Taylor Hawkins and Eddie Van Halen die, and they get nothing, basically. Shame on you, #GRAMMYs . Taylor, forgive them, you don't need their blessing, they are rating vultures. #TaylorHawkins

  I’m not even some big Foo Fighters fan but that Taylor Hawkins “tribute” was kinda weak. #GRAMMYs

  The #Grammys already had time for an In Memoriam set aside since every show does it, so they should not have replaced Foo Fighters' slot with it. They should've gathered a group of phenomenal drummers to pay tribute to Taylor Hawkins when the Foos were supposed to perform. SMH

  Taylor Hawkins was supposed to be there. He was supposed to perform with the Foo Fighters at the Grammy’s and my heart hurts every time I remember that he’s gone. 🤍 grief never really ends, huh

  The #GRAMMYs playing with my heart doing an in memoriam for people in the music industry who passed with a special dedication to Stephen Sondheim and Taylor Hawkins, performed by Rachel Zegler, Ben Platt, Cynthia Erivo and Leslie Odom Jr… I’m not well

  Weird to say that that was a really good "In Memoriam" segment, with Taylor Hawkins to start and Stephen Sondheim to close...but it was. #Grammys2022

  The Grammys didn’t include Vinnie Paul in their tribute when he died, and now they don’t include Joey Jordison in this year’s tribute. Now they wanna act like they care about drummers/rock music by showing a 30 second video of Taylor Hawkins?
  
  Wack.

  Is that the best the Grammys can do to honor Taylor Hawkins?

  — lorencita (@lorencita) April 4, 2022

  This "tribute" didn't honor @taylorhawkins. Considering they were scheduled to play tonight, @foofighters won 3 Grammys, and he was beloved in the music industry made this a shame.
