I have to be honest, I didn't know who you were until the tribute show at Wembley. Now, I have nothing but mad respect for you as an artist and performer. I may be late to the party, but I'm grateful I made it.

[@amandaburk4641]

If you, Wolfgang , Freese, and Grohl could PLEASE do at least one album together as a supergroup, the entire universe would be grateful!! ⚡️🔥🎤🤩

[@koozdorah]

I would love that, but more than anything I would really like Justin to also play guitar in whatever supergroup or new project he does. He’s a great singer of course, but also a really really masterful guitarist. The world needs to know! I would say Wolfgang on lead, Justin on guitar (and possibly vocals, fine, if they can’t find anyone else) and Dave grohl on drums! Don’t get me wrong, I love Justin’s voice, but his guitar is on another level!!

[@amandaburk4641]

Justin is one of my favorites guitarist 🤩! I just feel like the rock scene has been long overdue for a supergroup and these guys have lightning in a bottle here! Getting together in any capacity regardless of who played what instruments or sang ( they all have good vocals) it would be phenomenal! I’m certain that they would all take turns on leading guitar/ drums/ or vocals on an album!

[@koozdorah]

@@amandaburk4641 wow yes taking turns would be ace. Amanda if you start a campaign sign me up.

Justin, you were a HUGE part of it, dont play it down. To take part in both shows and absolutely KILL it (just look at social media comments about you) is something as a die hard Foos fan that I will always remember......and now I'm a die hard Darkness fan too. Win win.

[@SeawaySensFan]

I'm not surprised by your modesty and your acknowledgement of what the event was really about, a celebration of Taylor Hawkins. Being a good dude, as always. But your performances were outstanding. To many who weren't aware until those shows, you revealed yourself to be a World Class International Rock Music Star, or, WCIRMS!!!! Bravo!

[@feral_housecat]

You were part of the glue for those events. Thank you.

Absolutely stunning vocals and brilliant energy on the level 42 song… appreciate what you do

[@noodles6206]

Yes! I loved hearing that track again, it sounded amazing

[@noodles6206]

Ok, so thanks to you Robb, i just went down a mini youtube rabbit hole, watching a couple of audience filmed (!!) clips of the Level 42 track and what i thought was, if one is of a certain age, you know this song inside out, you probably sang along to it many, many times in your bedroom, so to me, the pure unfiltered joy you see in Justin’s face in this performance is so real and relatable. Also, you can hear him say ‘thank you’ to the guitar tech who brings his guitar on stage for him mid-song. Justin Hawkins: officially the politest man in rock😂

[@BostonRobb]

@@noodles6206 haha - well for the past week I’ve had those audience filmed videos of the level 42 song “something about you” playing on repeat… Justins vocals and performance are radical. Such an incredible show… I’m wicked grateful to those in the audience filming yo share with the world.

[@djlehara]

You weren't only part of a tribute to Taylor Hawkins, you WERE the ONLY EVH tribute this world will see. Amen.

[@MashaT22]

I second this! The rest of Van Halen apparently can't get their acts together to pay tribute to a bandmate. Just go out on the road with Wolfie and the rest of the gang and do the tribute he deserved!

[@topjimmy77]

The only tribute we need, I wouldn’t want Roth anywhere near an EVH tribute, Micheal Anthony was due to be sidelined. The VH camp couldn’t organise a root in a brothel with a fistful of $50’s.

[@topjimmy77]

@Richard Harrold my preference is for Roth era VH too, but DLR is no Dave Grohl, he won’t be interested In honouring Ed, it’ll be all about him, the bickering between him & Sam would cheapen the whole affair. Michael Anthony, was due to be left out & he’s probably the only one interested in doing it for the right reasons. Joe Satriani on guitar? Wolfgang just showed us twice who should be on guitar. Wolf has honoured Ed both with the track & video Distance & the Taylor shows. If he feels that it should be left at that, then I agree.

[@davidfaustino4476]

​@Richard Harrold don't be sorry for being tone deaf.

[@charliebluechaos4963]

Aaaawwww ♡ I love the analogy of a guitar like a butterfly net ♡ Much love to you Mr. Hawkins

[@hoisin75]

My favourite bit was you being Mike Lindup to the legendary Mark King and THEN killing that dual guitar solo.

[@jennifernardi9893]

You were a HUGE part of those tribute shows and honestly, one of the best parts. I hope you and your music take off. You have alot of new fans now, Justin. And we are here for all of what you've got to give 💃❤️🔥 #slayallday

[@jennifernardi9893]

@ghost mall I was unaware of him or his band. Shame on me! I do remember that song, of course, but was raising babies. I'm all in now and can't wait to support him, what a talent he is 🔥🔥🔥

[@ijustneedmyself]

As an elderly millennial, I got to see the transition from no smartphones to smartphones at shows. I went to rock shows most frequently in the early 00s. It was an excellent time. I took photos with disposable cameras and eventually took some shots with a digital camera. I was able to snap some shots and still be in the moment. Nowadays you can't go two seconds without seeing a phone screen staring back at you, especially during the more well-known songs lol. Every now and then, I reminisce about my show days and I'm finding, as I'm approaching 40 (👵🏽), that my memories of these early 00s shows are becoming more and more faded with time. That makes me so fucking sad. I wish I had a smartphone during that era because I could look back on the videos and use them as a memory aid 🤣 There's a balance to be had. There's nothing wrong with taking short video clips at concerts, but I find it so distracting standing behind a bunch of people with blue screens in my face. I was at a show a few years ago and a dude was live streaming it to an audience of exactly 0! Lol. Anyway, record those videos people, but goddamn please put the phone down for the majority of the show.

[@sethdognaux7966]

its nice too be able to go back and watch vootage that is hard to remember . I would think maybe if there were more professional shots and videos taken then people would feel leas compelled to grab for the phones . I can def relate to your comment tho

[@ijustneedmyself]

@@sethdognaux7966 It would be so nice! In all honesty it hadn't even occurred to me until recently that I might actually be able to find footage of some of those concerts. A couple weeks ago, I saw myself in a video from 2003 😅 I would bet at least some people would feel less compelled if there were more recorded shows available. But we're in the day and age where people want to show others where they are and what they're doing all the time so I'm sure that plays into it why people record as well.

[@michaelzack5581]

Josh Freese, Chris Chaney, Greg Kurstin, Mark King and yourself were brilliant on Something About You. One of the true highlights of the show.

[@jjbooker65]

I ordered an autographed picture of you Justin to put by my piano and guitars, to remind me to never give up on music, I am older now 57....but I keep trying...Taylor was an inspiration , like when he said I'm not a Rock Star I am a Musician...because he truly loved music like yourself.

[@morbidmanmusic]

But, he was one of the biggest rock stars. Or so many others would not have played... all musicians are just musicians. That's how it works in that world. You all create the "rock star". We just play and prance....

[@TheHulksMistress]

Oh god, 57’s nothing. Look at the Rolling Stones, Mick Jagger strutting around like he’s in his 20’s A lot can happen in a very short span of time. Whatever you want to achieve (large or small), I’m sure you can manage it

[@sealed_vhs8193]

I was there. Can confirm the crowd response for the Van Halen stuff was the loudest and most engaging of the night! I'll never forget it. Honestly teared up while it was happening. Really special moment in my life being a massive Van Halen fan. You and the boys killed it Justin!

[@lauriewhitecloud9460]

The LA gig blew my mind! I only cried when Ru almost broke down. Thanks for being there for Taylor, we all feel his loss. Also, you might like to know that my sister loves your channel. (She hasn't listened to any TD albums, but give me time to work with her on that....mwahahahaha!)

Other than Dave Grohl, Justin you were the thread that wove through the whole tribute show. You were outstanding!!!

[@garysmith3173]

Justin,your daily uploads are like a good medicine. I’m always happier after watching them. I’ve prescribed you to many friends and they all agree. Quite simply,you are wonderful.

[@tomitob7364]

Regarding filming, Placebo recently requested that the audience refrain from doing so. Before they came on (in Hamburg) there was polite request on the screen and a spoken message from the promoter. And what do you know, about 99.8% complied. Fantastic. Hands in the air instead of phones - and a happy Brian and Stef. Terrific show, too. Brian's voice sounding better than ever.

[@nvee149]

the Van Halen piece was magic and we were so lucky to be there for it. Special seems like such a bland term for what the show was, what it felt like. we're forever grateful for Taylor and everyone that played at the gig. 💙💙

You don't need to hide your light under the bushel, Justin. Your Taylor Hawkins Tribute show was really exciting and one of the highlights. Everybody is glad that you have been a part of this event.

[@KatSnow11]

Dear Justin, I want you, Rufus, Dan, and Frankie to know how much The Darkness means to me! It was the heartbreak of losing Taylor that led me to discover The Darkness a bit before the Wembley Tribute, and what a treasure each of you are!! I’m tearing up as I write this because, in my opinion, the high level of respect and love of band mates and the mission to Always bring your best to each show is what it is all about! These are the things that put The Darkness and the Foos up into the highest level!! We never know how much time we have on this Earth, so we must make the most of it every day, we shouldn’t waste our time on anything that isn’t genuine. Justin, getting to know you through this channel is a true joy! I love you and what you’re doing here, and The Darkness rocks my fucking face off!! “Heart Explodes” is on top right now for me. The video for it just makes my day. Thank you for every wonderful thing you did at Taylor’s Tributes. I know it was from your heart. I hope Rufus is hanging in there…please give him a hug from me. Love you all. Katrina

On mentorship - this channel has made you like a mentor to me. I’ve always enjoyed your songs and thought your band was cool but this channel has directly influenced my music - writing and production. Keep up the good work Justin 🤟🏻🤟🏻

[@John-do9ei]

Two observations, for one LA is Van Halen home turf, so going out there with Wolfie, yeah, we love that. My friend was up close to you guys in front. She's not even a VH fan and even she went live on social media with Wolf playing that solo for "Hot for Teacher." This was our personal soundtrack growing up. A lot of us had passing interactions with band members, like I once said "Hey, how's it going?" to Ed late one night at a liquor store in Hollywood. Before they made it big, they were all very accessible, and all kinds of people would go to Ed's mom's house in Pasadena to chat guitar. Going to the market around the corner, right by my friend's house, there's a "Van Halen" carved into the curb done by the brothers when they were still teenagers. There's quite a VH legacy in Southern California. The other observation is that when it comes to this plague of phone recording, I think of my Buddhist upbringing. It pulls you out of living in the moment. I understand completely taking a nice snippet as a souvenir, like a travel snap, but the people who just stand there recording the whole thing are really missing out on the actual experience, which seems sad to me. Unless they have an actual physical memory problem, it seems they would be more fulfilled by the lived experience than owning a vid that nobody is going to watch.

[@Dreyno]

When I go to a concert I record a few seconds 2-3 times just to capture a few moments of the show. No more. I’m there to listen and soak it up. Not make a documentary about it.

About filming. I was in LA for the tribute concert. I was filming some parts too, basically because my mom is also a fan of Foo Fighters and she asked me to send her some videos. I’m a Russian teen who lives in NYC alone, so I felt that I have to share this moment with my mom, who’s in Russia, too. The ticket was her birthday gift for my 18th birthday. I feel like it’s important to find a balance between filming and just enjoying a show. LA tribute is the most incredible thing that has ever happened to me and filming some parts of it wasn’t a thing that kept me away from dancing and singing. Thank you for the concert, Justin :)

[@Jericho5255]

Having been front row to one of your shows in Canada, I was very aware to not record like a ton of your show. I got a quick picture here or there, maybe a snippet of a song or two, but that's about it. Mostly kept the phone away and enjoyed getting my face melted off!
