Eagles Of Death Metal confirmed for Reading and Leeds

By Ben Tipple

Eagles Of Death Metal have been added to the Reading and Leeds Festival line-up, joining the previously confirmed Red Hot Chili Peppers, Slaves and Crossfaith.

The announcement comes as the band confirm a mainland Europe tour, entitled ‘The Nos Amis Tour’, including a return to Paris where 89 people were killed by attackers during their last headline show.

“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,” says front man Jesse Hughes. “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 ā€˜nā€™ roll to the world.”

Reading and Leeds will take place from the 26th to the 28th August 2015. Full details and tickets are available via the Reading and Leeds websites.
