    In absolute shock & disbelief over the the passing of Taylor Hawkins. I’ve always had so much admiration for him. Amazing drummer & a gem of a guy who was always fun to be around. I’m absolutely gutted…my deepest condolences to his bandmates & family 😥🙏 #RIPTaylorHawkins

    I am in complete and utter shock over the news of Edward Van Halen’s passing...Very few musicians ever come along that change the entire landscape of their instrument and King Edward was one of those few. One of the G.O.A.T! #RIPEVH #RIPEdwardVanHalen 😢😢😢

    I know these are serious times right now...but at least we can get a chuckle from some of the funny album cover parodies that have come out! 😂 Share any others you’ve seen...

    Damn…20 years old today?? I love this one…it was such a challenge to follow up SFAM, but hey…go big or go home! My 1st Double Studio Album (of many more to come…), my longest song w DT (42 Mins), and quite a sonic statement…one of the most proudest Productions of my career!

    Apparently Beyoncé just set a record by winning her 32nd Grammy…I am telling you the GOD’S HONEST TRUTH: I’ve never heard a single song of hers…for real!! (& before you come at me, that’s not a dig on her…just an example of how clueless I am to modern pop music) Go figure…🤷🏻‍♂️

    So happy to see that Deden Noy has finally received the drums we arranged for him! His story is inspiring and I’m so glad we could share the gift of drumming with him 🥁 Thanks so much to all at @TAMAofficial and @SABIAN_Cymbals for their support in making this happen! 👏

    34 Yrs ago tonight I lost my mom in a tragic plane crash. I wrote about this in my song A Change Of Seasons & the Carpe Diem message is still just as important today. Give my lyrics a listen & give your loved ones a hug and kiss because you never know when they'll be gone forever
