The Foo Fighters have canceled the rest of their European tour following the deadly city-wide terrorist attacks in Paris, France. The rock band took to their official Facebook page on Saturday to announce the news.

"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," the statement read. "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," the post continued. "This is crazy and it sucks. Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone who was hurt or who lost a loved one."

This decision is just one of many by bands and artists who have decided to postpone or cancel shows in wake of the heartbreaking events.
