Like everyone I’m struggling to understand what happened that night and how to pick up the pieces and start to heal,” Aldean said before his _SNL_ performance. “So many people are hurting.” “They’re our children, parents, brothers, sisters, friends — they’re all part of our family,” he continued. “So I want to say to them — We hurt for you and we hurt with you. But you can be sure that we’re going to walk through these tough times together, every step of the way. Because when America is at its best, our bond and our spirit, it’s unbreakable.” > [](https://twitter.com/nbcsnl/status/916886937084022784) At least 58 people were killed and more than 500 were injured in last Sunday’s rampage, when a lone gunman unleashed a barrage of bullets on the Harvest 91 festival from the 32nd floor of his hotel room at the [Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino](http://time.com/4965095/mandalay-bay-resort-casino-hotel-las-vegas-shooting/).
