Taylor Hawkins Performing Somebody To Love by Queen at Lollapalooza Chile

Venue: Lollapalooza Location: Santiago, Chile Date: August 20, 2022

In August 2022, during their set at Lollapalooza Chile, the Foo Fighters delivered a heartwrenching performance, especially poignant given it came just months after the tragic passing of their beloved drummer, Taylor Hawkins. At that moment in their career, the band was gearing up to release their tenth studio album, *But Here We Are*, which would come out in June 2023, showcasing their resilience and ongoing evolution in sound. Before this performance, the Foo Fighters released *Medicine at Midnight* in February 2021, an album infused with a celebratory energy that starkly contrasted with the somber reality of Hawkins' loss. His rendition of Queen’s "Somebody to Love" not only gave fans a nostalgic hit but also illustrated the deep connection they shared, transforming a typical cover into a heartfelt tribute. Hawkins' charisma and vocal talent shone through in those moments, creating a lasting memory for the audience, as they celebrated his legacy in the most emotional way possible.
