] The owner of The Stone Pony in Asbury Park blamed the ] metal band Great White and its management for the fire ] that killed at least 96 people in a Rhode Island ] nightclub Thursday night. ] "I absolutely blame the band," said Domenic Santana. ] "They used the same pyrotechnics here on Valentine's Day, ] without our permission. We did not know they were going ] to do it and we could've been in the same situation." This takes the "that could have been me!" factor to a whole new level. They did it at the Pony too.. |

] WEST WARWICK, Rhode Island (CNN) -- At least 39 people ] died at a concert late Thursday and others were reported ] missing after a fire -- apparently ignited by an indoor ] pyrotechnics display -- destroyed a Providence, Rhode ] Island-area nightclub, officials said. Holy shit! I'm always in West Warwick! I'm also always at shows! But not Great White shows. And not in West Warwick either. That's so terrible, and only a few days after the Chicago stampede. A guy I work with got asked to go to that show. But he's not into 80's metal so he didn't go. His friends got out though. So that's good. UPDATE: a woman my boyfriend works with here just ran out to the hospital, crying.. apparently her daughter was there last night, and so were a bunch of people from here.. i saw that woman this morning and she seemed fine, i guess she just got the news. how terrible. UPDATE: the death toll is now up to 86, this is all people have been talking about all day. and i just saw a quote that i HAVE to include: " A New Jersey club owner said Great White used pyrotechnics without seeking his permission for a concert there a week ago. Dominic Santana, owner of the storied Asbury Park club, the Stone Pony, said management had not known the band planned to use pyrotechnics during a February 14 show. "We do not allow pyrotechnics and it got us by surprise," he said. " GREAT WHITE WAS AT THE PONY LAST WEEK AND WE MISSED IT?@!#@!?!?!?!?!! Nightclub fire kills at least 86 |

] The president, often portrayed as using a strict ] good-and-evil compass to navigate national issues, has ] always peppered his speeches with exhortations to moral ] and civic duty. And with war, tragedy and terrorism ] confronting him all at once, Bush's allusions to ] spirituality and morality seem to be increasing. I went to Catholic grade school, high school, and college, and while that effectively made me lose all my religious leanings, I still have respect for people who turn to whatever God they worship during times of need. And I even respect Bush feeling that he has to turn to God during his times of need. But to continually announce his faith every time he makes a speech is just wrong of him. Not all Americans are Christian, some Americans do not worship at all. One of the many, many reasons I'm voting for whoever is NOT BUSH next time around.
