Shane is eventually going to be full time with the foo fighters. Josh Freese is just filling in until Shane is ready, probably in a year.

[@EmEm78]

He's so talented, and his spirit shines through brightly. I hope the fame doesn't lead him down self destructive paths like it has for so many.

[@juve7878]

No DNA test needed. Pounds the drums just like his father. This kid has crazy energy. Well done. Your father be supper proud of you.

[@richardharrold9736]

Hits harder than his father ever did. More like Dave...

[@annkd2037]

Holy cow.. if you didn't know... The way he hits the drums you'd think it was Taylor. His dad IS PROUD WATCHING FROM ABOVE. So awesome to see the Foo family supporting Shane!!!

[@shawnryan1793]

There is something spiritual taking place when this kid is playing the same songs as his dad. You can just feel it.

[@mikevogler5455]

Exactly, 100%, just like his father! Looks even more like his dad now with that longer hair, too. Glad his dads genes were passed onto him in a big way. The only thing I got from my dad was a hard time, extreme irritation, and a heads-up to never have children. Lol. Seriously though, Shane's going to be something big in his Lifetime, no doubt about it. 🙂👍

But hey hes also young man Shane but he should be foo fighters drummer full time can we make it happen please

Shane is more talented then anyone else

[@ChrisJohnson-x1x]

Shane knows their back catalogue more than Josh does, was literally brought up on the road with FF. I just think he’d be a better fit. No disrespect to Josh, but I’d of picked Shane over Josh.

[@TorbenMartin-ei9xw]

Such a dumb comment

[@anthonylee5518]

Shane is a cross between his dad and Dave! The energy he brings to this band is undeniable! If he wants to be the drummer of the band it should be his spot! I would bet he is going to be the permanent drummer at some point in the next year or 2.

[@obirobkenobi3599]

The way Shane looks at Dave over the drumkit ,tucks his hair ready to go is pure Taylor ! 😭😭😭😭❤

[@ReturnToDrums]

Damn this dude rips! Looks and plays just like his dad. And is clearly obsessed with the drums like his old man was. Carry that torch !!

[@katherinebrennan5695]

What I see|feel|hear is Shane beating out his sorrow, his grief, his loss and his anger on those skins. A brilliant rock drummer? Hell yes. God bless and carry on, Shane. Your dad would be proud.

[@EmEm78]

I hope it's also a healing way of honouring his dad and feeling close to him. He's so incredibly talented, and I hope that his exposure to fame at such a young age doesn't lead him down a destructive path. I've been following his journey, and as a parent to young boys myself, I'm sure his parents couldn't have hoped for a more incredible son. He's an inspirational little dude, and I look forward to seeing many, many years of his success.

[@hampton1947]

@@EmEm78I agree it’s awesome when he honors his dad by being amazing on drums, but we shouldn’t get carried away with the amazing guy stuff. He’s a multi millionaire, went to the rich private schools, is only around the privileged and celebs. Chances are as a person he’s terrible. Taylor even talked about it once that his biggest challenge was trying to keep his kids from becoming entitled jerks which he said is hard bc they grew up flying around the world on private planes. Taylor knew

That drum solo at end was so good, you can see Nate looking over and thinking “come on kid, your stealing the spot light here, finish it”.

[@iCodeSwitch]

You really think so? I thought he looked proud/impressed

[@ChrisJohnson-x1x]

@@iCodeSwitch I meant he was doing it jokingly, as he was really good, like too good.

[@lizturner267]

It’s freaky, a million years ago I saw a 17 year old drummer, elbows and hair flying at the Rivoli in Toronto, it was a wee Dave Grohl playing with “Scream”. Shane reminds me more of a young Dave that a young Taylor. I think sitting at the kit, sharing a** sweat all those years added some Dave DNA to Taylor’s kid. He's a young phenom in his own right and Taylor shines through him.

[@RichardMcLaren]

A million years ago? Wow, you look pretty good for your age 😂😂

[@brandimccarty2588]

I have thought that from the first time watching Shane play. He definitely hits like Dave. Taylor was talking about how Shane loved Nirvana more than foo fighters bc he liked Dave’s style. He loved his Dads also but I think Dave’s fit Shane better. Taylor’s style always LOOKS cleaner to me, but both are one of a kind and would be hard to choose which is best. Shane got the best of both and made this outstanding talent even better.🩵 ✌️🕊️🩵 His Dad would be proud 🤘😇🤘

Yeah, some people are full of crap!

[@JamesKylieMerton]

Its like watching Dave when he was 20 odd in the early Nirvana days!!! He seriously is his Fathers son with some of Uncle Dave's influence showing through, but also an amazing drummer in his own right, which is the main thing!!.

[@RichardMcLaren]

Don't forget he has Josh, as an influence now. All things being equal, he should turn out to one of the very best, in a few years time.

[@Elaine-n9n]

So grateful to still have the Foo’s, Josh and Shane love

[@Artemisinthecity]

He is so fortunate to have been surrounded by greats who could nurture his talent. Seems like he has definitely been influenced also by Dave. He pounds it!

[@Firfahksakes]

Absolutely amazing and I love you!! I know your Dad would be so proud of you!!!❤❤❤

[@fyndor]

I hate that Taylor died, but it's crazy how that was a catalyst for Shane absolutely shining on the music world ever since.

[@ChrisFjelde]

Shane is growing up quick. His mannerisms are his dad, straight on.

[@pandasarevicious]

Shane is an incredibly talented kid who has a bright future ahead of him, but anyone comparing him to Josh is sort of crazy. Shane is a lot of talent and potential. Josh is perhaps the most successful session drummer of his generation. Shane can get there. But he’s a kid. I will say it’s great seeing his confidence grow. I saw him at Boston Calling and he is much more sure of himself now. I wish him absolutely the best!

[@rockmoussealt7764]

Great to watch Shane play an old school hit. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to seeing where Shane goes in his career.

[@ivanvivaldi]

Hey is giving them that energy they used to have in the beginning of the band 🤩

[@ederyification]

Josh is indisputably very good , but Shame is also very good and he is also a Hawkins and this Band needs a Hawkins to be on drums.......Thanks Dave for letting him sit and bring a Hawkins sound and energy and special feel into Foo.....Very,very rare circumstances.....

[@sterlingstarbuck1631]

I have absolutely no way of proving this other than showing pictures but I was backstage for some of the concert and actually saw Shane warming up. Best part was the day before the concert my family and I got to play on Josh’s drums, and hold guitars. One of my brothers even talked to Shane after he played and he’s a down to earth kind of guy.

[@cerysjones363]

how? also tutorial pls???? (not sarcasm)

[@hampton1947]

Uh, no Shane is a not a “down to earth” dude. He’s a millionaire that grew up spoiled rich. Goes to the elite private schools in California with other kids of celebrities and rich elites. Taylor even talked about how his challenge was trying to keep Shane from being an elitist jerk which he said was hard bc he grew up flying on private planes. ✈️. And Shane just did a snobby fashion show…nothing says punk rock and down to earth like fitting in with the runway model elitist crowd 😂 We all feel bad that he lost his dad young but let’s not make him something he’s not. He’s a rich spoiled kid who has no idea about what it’s like to be a regular dude

[@FLOWERMLRC]

@@hampton1947wtf like you are a saint get a life and stop worrying about how someone else is as a person.

[@hampton1947]

@@FLOWERMLRC The issue is ppl going from “he’s an awesome drummer” and “tragic he lost his dad young” to Shane is a great person and down to earth. By most accounts he’s an entitled spoiled rich silver spoon kid who hangs around with the rich and elite. As I said, his dad even talked about it. It’s everything that punk rock is not about. That’s the problem with kids of celebs. The dad worked his way up, knew what it was like to have crappy jobs and be a real person which shaped him…but the kids grow up rich and spoiled and know nothing of that . Not really their fault but doesn’t change facts. The closest Shane is going to get real working class ppl is playing the bars with Chevy

There's a term of Grandfathering into the business.. I feel over time if Shane Buckels down to learn from these legends of rock and takes it seriously, his father's legacy will carry on to him.

[@lucagugl]

Dave is an incredible guy! I mean, he is the leader of one of the most successful bands of the last 30 years and he was the drummer for Nirvana! Still, he’s looking at Geezer playing next to him and you can tell he is genuinely admiring and respecting him, thinking “ right, I might be a rockstar, but I’m nothing compared to this fu@ing guy!” I love Black Sabbath and never been a big Foo Fighters fan, but Dave is a true legend of rock!

What an electric atmosphere. Shane is really growing up and his hair is long like his dad's. What are legendary drummer just like Taylor but I think Shane is even better. I think if he's got to do a whole concert he might need to pace himself a little bit more LOL 🥁

He obviously learned from his father, but Shane also has a lot of Dave's 90s vibe when drumming. Which makes sense since Taylor always said they were big Nirvana fans but it was awkward to talk with Dave about it
