More than 1,000 musicians united in Paris earlier this month for an emotional tribute to Taylor Hawkins.

It was part of the latest performance by the massive music collective Rockin’ 1000, who performed the Foo Fighters staple “My Hero” at Stade de France.

Rockin’ 1000 has a special connection to Hawkins and the Foos – the project was first launched in 2015 as a way to convince the Foo Fighters to play a concert in Cesena, Italy.

Other songs covered by the 1,008-person band included “Paradise City”, “Hell’s Bells”, “Space Oddity”, and “Seven Nation Army”.
