1. One of the dutch newssites has been hacked, so they stated 3 bandmembers died and only the drummer was rescued..
    All in all an awful story, and a big shock for the band and everyone involved. Hope there won't be more victims than the one dead and three injured
  2. Awful news, you just don't expect anything to happen when you set out for a good nights entertainment. Unfortunately, one family will be grieving tonight. Sad news.
  3. Never left the house...got the news from you guys (I don't watch much TV). Appreciate the heads up.

    Bummed out about missing the show but sad news indeed.

    (For the record, this is the second Radiohead show that's had an issue in Toronto. In August 2003, we had a MAJOR blackout across southern Ontario and that show was also postponed.)

    Maybe they'll reschedule but whatever.
  4. I never take part on this topic here but saw it on the news a minute ago and realized it was from a Radiohead gig venue. So sad to hear this, feeling for the victim´s family

    relieved to hear you are okay, Matt.
  5. Glad you didnt leave Matt...what a terrible turn of events...right when Chris told me I thought of you...Radiohead,Toronto..I was like "oh shit "....
  6. Very unfortunate news.
  7. Thanks for the kind words and thinking of my well being.

    I turn 39 next month and have two kids so when I go to a show, I usually arrived within a half hour before the opening act goes on.
  8. Is this a place that hosts a lot of concerts? I heard (though not confirmed) that both RH's crew and the opening act's crew were not involved, so I assume this was a local person hired to set up the stage.

    As horrible as this, at least it didn't happen during the show, when the stage area would be much more crowded with band, crew, and fans.
  9. They do but I've never seen one there.

    The SARS benefit back in 2003 was held there.
  10. Eerily, today was also the 15th anniversary of OK Computer's release:



    PURE GENIUS.
  11. Terrible news. It's just such a sad thing to know that everyone could have been having a great night with that concert, but now no one is going and there is a death too.

    Rest in peace.
