This whole Great White thing got me thinking about how vulnerable bands (and fans) can be sometimes. A lot of times they're booked into clubs they have never been before and in cities they have never been before. I can just imagine that's a scary proposition to walk into blind. And if you have some greedy dumbass promoter who trys to book a band in a crappy club to get more money it can be really scary. I know the Maiden's don't use pyro but the same results could have just as easily have been achieved by some half-wit in the audience (we've all seen 'em at shows). Anybody remember the story behind Smoke on the Water? So... I wanna wish all the Maidens a big hug for makin' it safely so far and the hope that nothing even remotely like this ever happens to them.
i watched the A team the other day on tv, when i was little(if i ever really was little) i thought that was the coolest show ever until i realized that they shot like 30,000 rounds a show, blew up a few things, and nobody ever got hurt.
