Concert Fire

[Yuyi]

Any of yall see this on the news? Like 86 people killed in some concert fire.

[mistled]

Yeah, it was in a night club. Somewhere in the northeast?? 97 dead last I heard. The band used some pyrotechnics which supposedly caused the fire. The owner of the club said that he wasn't asked about their using the pyros, but the band says that they asked him before they did.

It dwarfed the staten island fire in the news today.

[mistled]

There was a staten island fire?? What happened??

[Navaron]

Yeah, oil rig, exxon refinary, something like that. The band was someone like Whitesnake a really shitty band. I was shocked to hear that they even had a concert, much less fans. There was that night club thing this week too. WTF? I'm staying home.

Ugh, I hate fire, a bit ironic eh? Yeah that sucks, stupid band. Ddi you hear about this illegal night club in Austin, police came in and sprayed pepper spray, like 32 people crushed trying to escape.

[Arthell]

The version i heard there was some sort of fight going on upstairs and a women whipped out some pepper spray. Everyone freaked out thinking it was, basically, a 'terrorist attack', heh.

[mistled]

Haven't heard about the Austin one, no. Did they ever figure out what happened in the one in Chicago where 21 people were trampled??

[Fire_Monkey]

yeah, heard that too. What a way to die. Trampled or crushed.
