Exactly a year after The Bataclan in Paris, France was hit by a deadly terror attack that left 90 people dead at the venue, they re-opened their doors last night, with Sting as their special guest.

“We've got two important things to do tonight," Sting told the crowd, before observing a moment of silence. “First, to remember and honor those who lost their lives in the attacks a year ago ... and to celebrate the life and the music of this historic venue ... We shall not forget them.”

The massacre took place during an Eagles of Death Metal show, and in addition to the 90 fatalities at the club, a total of 130 people were killed in Paris that night in the coordinated attack. After the tragedy, members of the band accused staff at the venue of being "in" on the plot. As it turns out, they tried to gain admittance to the show last night, and they were turned awa. "They came, I threw them out — there are things you can't forgive," Bataclan co-director Jules Frutos told Agence France-Presse.
