Eagles Of Death Metal line up Paris gig

Eagles Of Death Metal have announced a rescheduled European tour which will see them return to Paris in February.

Jesse Hughes and co were on stage at the city’s Bataclan on November 13 when extremist gunmen forced their way into the venue, killing 89 people.

They put all live commitments on hold following the tragedy but they’ll head out on the road early next year on The Nos Amis Tour – and those who survived the Bataclan attack are entitled to a free ticket for the band’s show at the Olympia Theatre, Paris, on February 16.

Hughes says: “The people of Paris have always been incredible to us, and our feeling of love towards this beautiful city and its people has been reinforced a million times over this past month.

“Hearing the stories of the survivors, the injured and those who have lost loved ones has been overwhelming. Not returning to finish our set was never an option.

“We look forward to coming back in February and continuing our mission to bring rock‘n’roll to the world.”

In addition, they’ll also play the Reading and Leeds festivals in the UK on August 26-28.
