Despite the massacre that took place earlier this month at the Bataclan in Paris, both the people of France and the bands that play in the City of Lights are doing their best to return to normal. While some bands, like Lamb of God and Five Finger Death Punch, have pulled out of playing shows in the wake of the attacks. others have chosen to persevere and play on. One of those bands is Clutch, who played at Le Trabendo in Paris this past Friday (27), just two weeks after militant Islamics gunned down 89 at an Eagles of Death Metal concert. Singer Neil Fallon, who doesn’t often weigh in on personal stuff, left an account of the show on his Instagram page that was as moving as anything anyone not directly involved in the attack has said. Here’s his account:
