Taylor Hawkins could have had a very different career if he had taken Axl Rose up on his offer.
The Foo Fighters drummer, who has tragically died at the age of 50, was once headhunted by the Guns N' Roses frontman who was desperate to recruit him for the band.
Axl reached out to Taylor while the Foos were in London promoting their 1999 album There Is Nothing Left To Lose, and the drummer got a phone call from his mum who said Guns N' Roses' management had called asking for him.
