Eagles of Death Metal is returning to Paris to perform with U2 for its final song on Sunday, November 6, Billboard reports. The two bands will reportedly perform at their rescheduled show at AccorHotels Arena.
Rumor has it, the Sunday performance will include EODM co-founder Josh Homme, who was not present during the November 13 attack. The rock band will also reportedly resume their halted European tour in February 2016.
U2 will perform at the same venue on the following night with their HBO special, "U2: iNNOCENCE + eXPERIENCE: Live in Paris" airing directly from France. The band was originally scheduled to perform there on November 14 and 15, but it was postponed in the wake of the attacks.
A representative for Eagles of Death Metal hasn't commented on the reports of an appearance with U2 and the 2016 tour.
EODM previously vowed to finish their tour and be the first band to perform at the Bataclan once it reopened. "I want to be the first band to play in the Bataclan when it opens back up," frontman Jesse Hughes told Vice in the band's first interview following the tragedy. "Our friends went there to see rock and roll and died. I want to go back and live."
