The Foo Fighters are suing insurance company Lloyd’s of London for allegedly dodging payment for cancelled shows following the Paris terrorist attacks back in November. According to TMZ, the lawsuit reportedly states that the band’s policy with Lloyd’s requires that the company cover the losses in the event that an act of terrorism forces a cancellation.
In cancelling their show in Paris, Foo Fighters wrote on Facebook, “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. 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. This is crazy and it sucks. Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone who was hurt or who lost a loved one.”
