tweeted,"@TaylorHawkins was truly a great person and an amazing musician. My heart, my love and my condolences go out to his wife, his children, his family, his band and his fans. See you on the other side - Ozzy."shared an emotional tribute on Instagram, recalling memories of his friendship with Hawkins.
"I don't have the words. Sad to write this or to never see you again," Barker wrote alongside a black-and-white photo of Hawkins."I'll never forget Laguna Beach days when I was a trash man playing in a punk rock band and you were playing with Alanis. You'd come watch me play in dive bars and be like, 'kid you're a star.' And I thought you were crazy but you gave me so much hope and determination.
Barker continued,"Years later we toured together with Blink and Foo's in Australia and I have the best memories of smoking cigarettes in the restroom of flights we were on together and watching your set every night. To say I’ll miss you my friend isn’t enough. Till the next time we talk drums and smoke in the boys room … Rest In Peace 😢🥁."
I have no idea who he is… RIP☁️
