Bob Geldof reportedly played his first concert since the tragic death of his daughter Peaches yesterday (May 25).
The Boomtown Rats frontman performed with his band at Volksfest in Plymouth, England, for a full 75-minute set, according to the Torquay Herald Express.
A festival-goer described him as a "real pro" for powering through the commitment in what must have been a horrendously painful situation.

"He put on a remarkable show in the circumstances," they said. "He must be hurting deep down but there was no sign of that and he was a real pro.
"We thought he might have said something or devoted a song to Peaches perhaps, but there was no mention of her."
Peaches was found lifeless on April 7, with heroin later found in her system.
Her death followed the passing of her mother, Paula Yates, from similar circumstances back in 2000.
Peaches was survived by her two young sons and her husband, Tom Cohen.
