Stage Collapses
Aug. 2nd, 2009 10:34 pmLast summer, it was tyres blowing on busses.
This summer it's stages collapsing. One just went at a festival in Canada, killing at least one, injuring many. Before that was the one in Slovakia, and then the Madonna thing in France...
Please keep an eye on your locals and riggers. They all do a good job, but all it takes is one lazy local or some inclement weather. Comply with your safety regulations - they're there for a reason. Know how much your trusses will carry. It's not rocket science. If we were smart we wouldn't be doing this in the first place.
What the fuck is going on this summer?
