Eagles of Death Metal visited the attack site at Bataclan in Paris following their surprise appearance with U2 at AccorHotels Arena on Monday night, November 7. They paid tribute to the victims of the terrorist attacks that happened during their concert on November 13.
Jesse Hughes was seen covering his face with his hand while drummer Julian Dorio wiped his tears during the emotional visit. The band members and crew laid flowers and read in silence messages and notes left by people at a makeshift memorial in front of the Bataclan concert hall.
On Facebook, the band said, "The bad guys never take a day off, and therefore we rock 'n rollers cannot either ... and we never will." They thanked U2 for giving them "the opportunity to return to Paris so quickly, and to share in the healing power of rock 'n roll with so many of the beautiful people - nos amis - of this great city."
In their first interview with Vice since the attacks, they said, "I cannot wait to get back to Paris. ... I want to come back. I want to be the first band to play in the Bataclan when it opens back up."
