Band Join U2 On Stage After Paris Massacre
The Eagles Of Death Metal made an emotional return to the stage less than a month after 89 people were killed at their concert.

The Eagles of Death Metal singer then said, “We love you too, so much for giving us this opportunity”.
The band performed and dedicated songs to Paris. “They reminded us that the bad guys never take a day off, and therefore we rock ‘n rollers can not either…and we never will”, wrote the band. “Would you welcome the Eagles of Death Metal!”
It’s been less than a month since the horrific Paris terrorist attacks, one of which happened during an Eagles of Death Metal concert at the Le Bataclan venue.
“Vive La France”, “Tonight we are all Parisians, ce soir nous sommes tous Parisiens”, U2frontman Bono told the crowd.
The American rockers bravely took to the stage alongside U2 on Monday night, who were headlining at the AccorHotels Arena.
The names of the victims were shown in red, white and blue on a giant screen at the end of the show.
”We’re back in Paris and it’s great to be here. We have another surprise guest planned for tonight’s show”.
U2, which provided the band with logistical help after the attacks, had denied it would appear on Sunday, when Patti Smith came onto the stage to close the first of two shows.
“They were robbed of their stage three weeks ago – we’d like to offer them ours tonight”, he said.
After the band were spotted arriving at Charles De Gaulle airport this week, rumours grew that they would be on the bill with U2.

During an interview with Vice News, Eagles of Death Metal said they were “counting down the days” until they could finish their gig in the French capital, with Hughes expressing hope his band will be the first to play inside the Bataclan when it reopens. “But it’s very important to go on, so the cafe is open, life is going on and that’s the best way to resist and I believe that”. I look around and what do I see, nos amis, our friends.
