Eagles Of Death Metal #1 Je suis eagles of death metal

quote:

De Amerikaanse groep Eagles of Death Metal, die vorige maand in het Bataclan-theater in Parijs optrad toen dat door terroristen werd aangevallen, staat zondag samen met de Ierse groep U2 op het podium in de Franse hoofdstad.

Volgens het Amerikaanse blad Billboard doet de groep mee met het laatste nummer van het vanwege de terreuraanslagen uitgestelde optreden van U2. Volgens Billboard zal Eagles of Death Metal vanaf februari ook de Europese toer vervolgen die door de aanslagen is afgebroken. Het optreden van U2 zondag is in AccorHotels Arena in Parijs.

Door de aanval op het Bataclan-theater kwamen bijna tachtig mensen, onder wie de pr-man van de band, om het leven. (ANP)

I think I'm one of the first in our group to see this. I find it difficult to put into words how this video makes me feel. I'm proud to be among you, part of you, one of you. Thank you for this kind & generous gift. It means the world to me. I thank you with everything I have. I am humbled by you. I am in awe of you. What you have done, together? I will never forget this gift of kindness. Thank you.
Sincerely,

EODM RESCHEDULES EUROPEAN TOUR

EODM (Eagles Of Death Metal) Reschedules European Tour, Announce Return to France

Band to perform at Paris’ Olympia Feb. 16;

Reading & Leeds Festival in August

EODM will return to Europe in 2016 to complete their postponed tour dates, including what will surely be an emotional return to Paris.

The rescheduled trek – The Nos Amis Tour – will see the band set to finish the tour that was cut short by the tragic events of November 13th at the Bataclan Theatre in Paris.

Fans who were at the Bataclan show on November 13th will be entitled to a free ticket for the rescheduled Paris date at the Olympia Theatre on February 16th. They must contact their original ticket supplier between January 5th and January 20th to claim their ticket. Unfortunately, the Bataclan Theatre will not be open again in time for the band’s return on this tour.

Fans who previously bought tickets for the remaining European dates will have a pre-sale window beginning Thursday to re-purchase their re-funded tickets. They will need to provide proof of original purchase.

EODM co-founder and frontman Jesse Hughes says:

“The people of Paris have always been incredible to us, and our feeling of love towards this beautiful city and its people has been reinforced a million times over this past month. Hearing the stories of the survivors, the injured and those who have lost loved ones has been overwhelming. Not returning to finish our set was never an option. We look forward to coming back in February and continuing our mission to bring rock ‘n’ roll to the world.”

Eagles Of Death Metal have also today announced that they will return to the U.K. to play Reading and Leeds. The festivals take place on the bank holiday weekend of August 26th - 28th.

Ja terwijl ze wel een optreden in Nederland hebben moeten afzeggen (Speedfest, 21 november in Eindhoven). Misschien omdat het geen eigen show was?

Nou ja, even simpel naar Eindhoven ofzo rijden is wat handiger dan naar Brussel/Keulen. Vooral als het een werkdag is (kosten/baten enzo )

De drempel is gewoon lager als het echt in de buurt is.

LETTER FROM EAGLES OF DEATH METAL
Hello talented friend, The senseless and violent terrorist attacks of Nov. 13, 2015 in Paris have left us all unsettled and we dare not give another second of precious time to those who have tried to steal our freedoms and take away our power.

Instead, we are writing to ask for your help to Play It Forward. We are calling upon our friends to donate their time, talent and good will in a show of solidarity to help the victims of these atrocious acts in Paris and those affected by terrorism worldwide.

We are asking for you to cover our song "I Love You All The Time." For every cover sold, we pledge to donate 100% of the publishing income to The Sweet Stuff Foundation. We ask that you also donate the money generated from sales of the song to the charity.

In the same spirit, we would encourage you to offer one of your songs up to be covered by another artist, and follow suit - donate the publishing monies to charity - The Play it Forward Initiative.

Whether you're Soul or R&B; Hip Hop or Hippy; Garage, Goth, Country, Punk or Pop; Death Metal or DJ; It matters not. Whether your version is faithful to ours, instrumental, uses only lyrics or fragments thereof or is completely reimagined in every way, it matters not. Your individual musical differences become our collective strength. Simultaneously, we will call upon iTunes, Tidal, Amazon, Spotify & all others who will sell these covers, to join us and donate their portions to a charity as a symbol of unity. So many wonderfully talented artists have offered their love & support or have reached out asking, "How can we help?" Our answer is simple; Unite with us. All of us. The musicians, the bands, the music companies & the fans. because we are music. We are the anthems of great nations. We are the songs of our forefathers. We are the hymns of God. The songs of the broken hearted. The unchained melodies. The songs of puppy love & of love that cannot be broken. We are the music of hope & possibility. We are the call to arms. We are the chorus of victory. We are songs in the key of life.

We are the Champions... of the World.

In the event our song doesn't float your boat, we encourage you to help unite our business by any means possible. If you're drawing a blank, donate something of yours or the proceeds from one of your songs, as Duran Duran has so graciously done. But do join us help & heal through music. They attacked us all, please hear the call.

Thank you for your time & love to you all,
