No good can come from seeing Radiohead. Wink
 
But that really is a shame. Hope the injured person isn't injured too badly.

Wow

An aerial view shows a collapsed stage in Torontos Downsview Park. The collapse killed one man and sent another to hospital with serious injuries Saturday afternoon.


They literally brought the house down

Terrible tragedy and I hope Radiohead and their fans recover from the shock of this.

Yeah, that was quite devastating. My friend went to the show, but I haven't talked to him since. Here's to a hopeful recovery. Smile

One day before this incident, Radiohead were at Montreal. I really wanted to see them but the concert was sold out after one hour. But it's strange that the day after this concert, the stage of Toronto collasped. Poor injured person
