Nun hat sich auch der Schlagzeuger zu Wort gemeldet: Nachdem die Eagles Of Death Metal nach den Anschlägen von Paris erst ein Statement via Facebook veröffentlichten und dann einen Teaser zu einem kommenden Interview mit Josh Homme und Jesse Hughes zeigen ließen, schildert nun Tourdrummer Julian Dorio seine Sicht auf die Geschehnisse.

„November 13, 2015. I, along with my bandmates @eodmofficial, had the privilege to play to one of the most energetic crowds of our tour when, nearly half way through the show, the unimaginable occurred. Absolute and unnecessary evil turned our world on its head. I am beyond grateful that I was able to find a way out of the venue, but I am mourning those who did not, including our mate, Nick Alexander. My thoughts are with their families. I’m home safe. And now I have a new family abroad. To Arthur, who ran for his life right beside me and selflessly put us in a taxi before himself, thank you. To Fabrice, a fan who lent me his phone later that night so I could call @emilydorio and attempt to put her at ease, thank you. To everyone who, in the face of unrelenting evil, went toe to toe using courage, compassion, and love as their weapons. You all are my heroes. Last but certainly not least, the outreach and support back home is appreciated more than you’ll ever know. I will never forget it. I am forever changed but hold fast to the love around us. I’m counting down the days until I get to finish that concert. Peace & love.“

Bei den Anschlägen von Paris am 13. November 2015 kamen mindestens 130 Menschen ums Leben. 89 davon starben bei einem Konzert der Eagles Of Death Metal im Club Le Bataclan, nachdem zwei unmaskierte Attentäter das Venue stürmten und mit Maschinengewehren die Zuschauer erschossen.
