In light of the tragic events that unfolded in France last night, many musicians have posted messages of support online.
Some of the worst carnage was at an Eagles of Death Metal concert at the Bataclan theater. CNN reports that at least 112 people were killed at the event. Those in attendance were innocent fans trying to enjoy the show.
We here EddieTrunk.com would like to send our hearts and prayers out to the people of Paris. Please read the messages from other musicians below.
