Four killed as stage collapses in America

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Watching the entire lighting rig collapse to the ground should fill anyone who has been to an outdoor festival with at least a little unease...

Well, it's Indianapolis, so... meth, mostly.

The most successful tyranny is not the one that uses force to assure uniformity but the one that removes the awareness of other possibilities, that makes it seem inconceivable that other ways are viable, that removes the sense that there is an outside.

Harsh! Mr.2075, Cheap Trick were nearly pummeled by an outdoor stage recently. I have no love for CT or any of the bands involved but a day out shouldn't end like that.

That came out much more heartless than intended. Apologies.
