Taylor Hawkins’s son Shane playing the drums at the Wembley tribute concert for his father is currently the number one trending video on YouTube. In the six-minute clip, 16-year-old Shane performs during the Foo Fighter song My Hero, taking up the spot where his Dad – the band’s drummer – used to sit. “Shane put a whole lotta heart and a whole lotta soul into that performance.
There’s no doubt who his hero is, and he sure as heck heard it!” said one of the video’s comments. “So much talent, passion and composure for a 16 year old on what must have been such an emotional occasion. Shane did his father proud!” said another.
