Earlier today the singer posted a link on his Twitter page to the Wiener Konzerthaus, where the tour was due to begin which read: "Due to the tragic events in Paris, the tour promoter has decided to postpone the upcoming European tour until further notice.”

Tickets for the UK shows had been due to go on sale last week, but their release was postponed indefinitely because of touts trying to sell tickets at inflated prices. At the time of writing the shows are still listed on Ticketmaster, but it reads "Currently not on sale” next to every date.

On Saturday Foo Fighters announced they would not be continuing on the rest of their European tour following the events in Paris. A statement on the Foo Fighters’ official website read: "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.”
