Mr Basketball NZ dies. I'm very saddened by this. Back in the 80s when I was a lad, the Saints were my team, the glamour team of NZ basketball. And at the head of that was Kenny McFadden, along with Angelo Hill and later Kerry Boagni. Since then he has done much to foster the basketball youth, most notably mentoring Stephen Adams. Another great taken far too early

Bugger. Decent drummer in a decent band.
That one has come as a bit of a shock to be honest. I thought they were all wholesome teetotal family men now ?
News reports it as a drug overdose.
He said this in 2001 - "I was partying a lot. I wasn't a junkie per se, but I was partying. There was a year where the partying just got a little too heavy. Thank God on some level this guy gave me the wrong line with the wrong thing one night and I woke up going, 'What the fuck happened?' That was a real changing point for me."Perhaps not.

Fuck. That is absolutely shithouse

Very sad, saw them live in 2011 with Jack Black opening, was an epic night and Taylor did great solo half way through. RIP.

@no-quarter yeah the Sydney show was fucking amazing with Tenacious D opening

That little English girl who’s ace on the drums can replace Hawkins.

Yeah if YouTube has taught me anything it’s that, with a few exceptions, there’s always some precociously talented little shit who can rock it out and you’ll close your eyes and be none the wiser !

She played with them live at one concert. Might have been post on the fern?

Discrimination in healthcare for being fat ?
If the shoe fits…..
RIP and all of that but shit I hate all that ‘poor me, I’m fat’ bullshit when just about 100% of the time it’s personal choice.

Foo fighters FB just announced Taylor Hawkins died.
Fuck
Shit. Only 50. Perhaps it wasn't natural causes? He was on tour with the band. Bloody sad
Rumours of chest pains and ambulances being called. Poss. heart attack? Went way too soon.
Watched a video he did on drumming for people who know nothing about drumming and it was really great - very informative and insightful. Tragic loss
