Eagles Of Death Metal Return To Bataclan Theatre For First Time Since Attacks

Ellen Tannam

It has been nearly a month since the Paris atrocities in November, where 89 people lost their lives at a terrorist shooting during an Eagles Of Death Metal concert in the Bataclan theatre.

The band joined U2 in an emotional appearance during their concert on U2’s tour Monday night:

“They were robbed of their stage two weeks ago- tonight we give them ours” – U2 welcome Eagles of death metal on stage #parisattacks #paris ##u2 #eaglesofdeathmetal

Members of the band today paid their respects to the victims at the site of the attack, looking at the hundreds of tributes left on a rainy afternoon.
