U2 was set to have a concert in Paris, which would be accompanied by a live broadcast by HBO. However, in the wake of the attacks that killed 128 people and left more than 180 injured, the band decided not to push through.

As reported by E! News, the band took to their website to make the announcement: "As a result of the ongoing state of emergency across France, the U2 Paris concert scheduled for 14th November will not be going ahead as planned. U2 and Live Nation, along with HBO who were due to live broadcast the Saturday concert, are fully resolved to go ahead with this show at an appropriate time. We watched in disbelief and shock at the unfolding events in Paris and our hearts go out to all the victims and their families across the city tonight. We are devastated at the loss of life at the Eagles of Death Metal concert and our thoughts and prayers are with the band and their fans. And we hope and pray that all of our fans in Paris are safe."

U2 has been taking photos from Paris in anticipation for their show. They also had other performances due on Sunday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
