Bono is determined to move forward with U2's concert in Paris next week and has high hopes that the performance will inspire the audience, the Associated Press reports.<br />"Well, knowing our French audience and having a sense of them by now, I would say joy as an act of defiance," Bono, 55, said about his expectations for the concert.<br />"That's what U2 does, that's what French people want from us and that's it."<br />U2 was originally schedule to perform in Paris on Nov. 14, just one day after the tragic terror attacks that left 130 dead.<br />Understandably, the band postponed their performance to a later date now scheduled for Dec. 6 and 7.<br />"They took a lot of lives we're not going to get back, but they're not going to change the character of the city of Paris," Bono told AP.
