The Foo Fighters have announced that they are canceling of the rest of their European tour in the wake of Friday's terrorists attacks in Paris.
A post on the Foo Fighters' verified Facebook page on Saturday reads, "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."
According to the Facebook page, the band was scheduled to play a concert in Turin, Italy, on Saturday; in Paris on Monday; in Lyon, France, on Tuesday; and in Barcelona, Spain, on Thursday.
