Foo Fighters Cancel Remainder of Tour After Paris Attacks

The Foo Fighters have canceled the remaining dates of their Sonic Highways World tour, including a concert in Paris, following terrorist attacks in the city on Friday that killed at least 129 people.

The Foo Fighters, led by Dave Grohl, announced the tour cancellation news on Saturday, a day after the attacks, as the group had four dates left and was scheduled to perform in Paris, at a different venue.

They said this in a statement “It is with profound sadness and heartfelt concern for everyone in Paris that we have been forced to announce the cancellation of the rest of our tour, in light of this senseless violence, the closing of borders, and international mourning, we can't continue right now. There is no other way to say it. This is crazy and it sucks." Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone who was hurt or who lost a loved one.

The explosions took place as thousands of people, including French President François Hollande and Fox News personality Geraldo Rivera's daughter Simone Rivera, 21, watched an exhibition game between France and Germany. The three attackers were killed.
