Eagles of Death Metal, an American rock band, was playing at the Bataclan concert hall in Paris Friday night when a deadly attack took place, killing at least 60 people. Gunmen opened fire, taking about 100 hostages during the performance while explosives were set off at the French national stadium in the Stade de France, which was full of spectators, including President François Hollande, for a France-Germany soccer game. The mother of the band’s drummer Julian Dorio told the Washington Post that her son is safe, as are other band members, but she was unsure about the band’s crew. The band also issued a statement via its Facebook page: From left, Dave Catching and Jesse Hughes of Eagles of Death Metal perform at The Forum on Nov.
