News : Cherry Bar Announce Tribute Eagles of Death Metal Paris Charity Event
In honour and support of the victims and families who lost loved ones during the November Paris attacks, Cherry Bar have announced a very special evening wherein a charity event will be held; with as-yet-unannounced Melbourne bands set to play in full Eagles of Death Metal‘s latest album, ‘Zipper Down’, as well as other select songs from the band’s discography. DJ Mermaid will also be playing.
On November 13, the band had been due to play to a sold-out crowd in Le Bataclan, Paris before the venue was attacked by terrorists. This led to the tragic death of at least 89 attendees.
On November 25, Vice posted an interview talking with the band about the incident and the aftermath. You can watch it below.
A $20 donation is all that is being asked for entry, with 100% of proceeds going to charity. The event itself will take place on Saturday, January 2 at Cherry Bar, AC/DC Lane.
