Elton John performed a special tribute song during his Iowa show on Saturday in honour of Taylor Hawkins. The Foo Fighters drummer passed away in Bogota, Colombia on Friday at 50.

During the stop on his “Farewell Yellow Brick Road” tour, John explained how he was “so shocked” to hear of Hawkins’ passing, “because he played on my Lockdown Sessions, he was one of the nicest people you could have ever met and one of the greatest drummers, and a true musician who loved all sorts of music, and loved life. “And it seems so sad that at 50 years of age we’ve lost someone that had that much passion.

And it makes me so downhearted for his family and his three children, his wife, his other relatives, and of course the Foo Fighters have lost a dearest loved one that can never ever be replaced.

There were few immediate details on how Hawkins died, although the band said in a statement Friday that his death was a “tragic and untimely loss.” Colombia’s Prosecutor’s Office released a statement Saturday saying toxicological tests on urine from Hawkins’ body preliminarily found 10 psychoactive substances and medicines, including marijuana, opioids, tricyclic antidepressants and benzodiazepines.
