r.i....p

the club fire in rhode island is quite a sad story...

but WHY the hell would you use pyrotechniques (basically, FIREWORKS) indoors in such a small space!? a WOODEN structure, no less.

the band, great white, used their own pyrotechniques (um.. a little common sense was needed desperately, folks)

"I just couldn't believe how fast it went up," Great White lead singer Jack Russell told CNN affiliate WCVB. "I'm so saddened it's such a tragedy.

"What do you say? Gee, I'm sorry? That just doesn't cut it," Russell said. "There's no words to express how I feel right now."

Russell said guitarist Ty Longley was missing.

Russell said the band had received permission from the club for the pyrotechnics, but The Station's stage technician, Paul Vanner, said he was not aware that the band planned to use fireworks.

PLUS... it was a small enough club that they DID NOT need to have a sprinkler system by law....

ehm.... that's just not good.
