After Guns N’ Roses wrapped the European leg of their ongoing world tour in Germany on Friday (July 15), lead singer Axl Rose thanked fans in a message that dedicated the trek to late Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins and expressed gratitude to country singer Carrie Underwood for helping out onstage. Hawkins died at 50 in March.
In the message on Saturday (July 16), Rose said, “It’s just a simple gesture n’ it’s awkward dealing with the gravity of something like this but in an effort to pay r respects we’d like to dedicate this tour to our friend Taylor Hawkins.”
The Guns N’ Roses singer continued, “Taylor was a really great guy and it was always great to see him! He was a great n’ always welcome part of touring these last few years! This is such a horrible thing and r hearts go out to his family, friend, band mates and every who love him.”
Clearly in a grateful mood after the tour, Rose went on to shout out frequent onstage guest Underwood. Underwood chipped in during the recent GN’R tour that saw Rose experience issues with his singing voice and visit a vocal coach.
