U2 has rescheduled its concert in Paris for next month.
The band was scheduled to perform "U2: Innocence + Experience Live in Paris" Nov. 14 for its first HBO concert special, but the terrorist attacks the evening before prompted them (and many other artists slated to perform in Europe) to postpone.
U2 will perform those shows at Paris’ Accorhotels Arena on Dec. 6-7 and the second concert will air live on HBO from 9-11:30 p.m.
Said Bono in a statement, “So much that was taken from Paris on the tragic night of November 13th is irreplaceable. For one night, the killers took lives, took music, took peace of mind – but they couldn’t steal the spirit of that city. It’s a spirit our band knows well and will try to serve when we return for the postponed shows on December 6th and 7th. We’re going to put on our best for Paris.”
