Chad Smith and Matt Cameron apologise to Foo Fighters over Taylor Hawkins comments

The drummers contributed to a Rolling Stone piece in which Hawkins' friends claimed he was struggling to keep up with the Foo Fighters' touring schedule before he died in March aged 50. After the article was published on Tuesday, Smith and Cameron issued separate statements on social media insisting they were unaware of the angle the piece was going to take. "Instead, the story they wrote was sensationalized and misleading... I apologize to his family and musical friends for any pain this may have caused.
