Have you guys seen this, at least 60 people were killed at a Great White show, 19 others are on life support. 160 more are injured. Fireworks started a fire in the building. I feel for those people and their families.

Not to sound too cold, but I am amazed Great White could draw over 300 people for a show still.

It's closer to 70 and one of the member is missing also..
To small of a club to be using pyrotechnics..

Atually it is already in the 80's and there is still over 100 people missing, including the guitarist for Great White. It's fucked up the place just passed their fire inspection prior to the concert and they stated that they did not need sprinklers because the bar was too small. The bar was not legally allowed to use pyro of any sort but the owner allowed it anyhow. Tragic!

I saw Great White play in 2001 here in northern Ca. at the "Bone Bash" (sponsored by a local radio station called 107.7 The Bone), and they are still very good. They opened for Tesla & Ted Nugent. They played here again a few weeks ago at a small club called The Icon, but at the last minute I didn't go.
