Loving music is one of the first things that brought Sarah and I together; and one band that we both love is the Foo Fighters.

We took the trip to London for the purpose of attending Taylor’s tribute concert, and since we were in London, we decided to visit the sights and why not Paris too? I’ve posted most of my photos from the trip, but here are the photos of us at most of the locations that we visited.

I remember the first time I heard “My Hero”. I was already a Nirvana fan, and I remember the radio DJ explaining that this song was written by the Nirvana drummer about Kurt.

I’ve been a Foo Fighters fan ever since, and Sarah’s level of love for the Foo Fighters eclipses mine. So, to attend Taylor’s tribute was a simple way to say thank you for 25 years of amazing music.

I figured that Dave (and the rest of the Foo) would play My Hero, and that I would cry. But instead, Taylor’s 16 year old son, Shane, played drums for My Hero. And honestly, Shane killed it: to hear thousands of people sing with Dave while Shane crushed the drums – it was a feeling of pure joy.

And then Dave sang “Everlong” alone. And I cried.
Thanks Taylor for 25 and many more years of great music.
