I can see it now...
The D.J. says..."THE ROOF! THE ROOF! THE ROOF IS ON FIRE!"
The crowd follows..."WE DON'T NEED NO WATER, LET THE MOTHER FUCKER BURN! BURN! BURN MOTHER FUCKER BURN!"
Followed by a flurry of monkey noises...
That must be the funniest reply I have ever read!
wtf is that a pic of???
You two boys are awful..
It's a club in Rhode Island.
80's band "Great White" was playing there when their pyrotechnics set the place on fire.
86 dead so far.
HOLY SHIT! [img]eek.gif[/img]
bloodhound gang. funny. but passe.
and [img]eek.gif[/img] to the pyrotechnics.
yes!! jokes that are more funny cus we're laughing at dead people listening to music and we just dont care.. true.. hilarious. Well.. i would have appreciated it 10 years ago anyway.
I guess any fire killing many is funny as long as there's music and irony. Im not offended at all but i dont really think just cus a joke is irreverant(the right word?) help me on that one shatzy.. that makes it funny.
OH SHIT!! I just read rottens posts in the daredevil thread, and think something is terribly twisted outa wack from the "old" rotten I used to see post a year or two ago.
Think he mighta accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as his Savior!?! Is rotten a Jesus Crispie now?
hmm rotten.
i was making a reference to ek3's posting of lyrics without any reference to the building on fire.
i'm not sure what's up your panties.
OK Tard, what was that post about?

what exactly is that supposed to mean? are you saying that accepting Jesus as Savior is something so wrong? i don't want to get started in a religous battle, because I don't think it is necessary, but first of all, i do not come on this board and judge you for NOT believing in something that I feel strongly about. I am highly offended by your comment, and if I am reading your post wrong, well so be it. It upsets me that you would make that post, and link it to something that is well, not good.
on another note, i thought the thread was funny. great use of a song in a post about burning people.
as for tard, seriously, what did you mean by that?
They must have played a hot set.
No offence was meant, GT. I just remember rotten as a lil more crude & irreverant a while back. Now he pops back today somewhat scornful of dark-humor jokes and whatever he said before editing in the "daredevil" thread. I personally don't hold anything "against" born-again Christians, but GAWD! Editing is backstepping. Leave what you said, then say "sorry. THIS is what I really meant to say...."
The Jesus Crispies can't seem to do that. (Sorry if you're one of them). NOOOO! (cripes, this would be a C/P nightmare if I decided to post all the priests raping lil boy stories in the news....
um, if you had read the newspaper and the horrifying description of people running out of the place with their faces burned off, the smell of burning flesh where minutes earlier all was well.
Not to pretty a picture, and not worth joking about.
Heard this morning there are 96 dead so far (a lotta smoke inhalation & burn victims though, so the number might rise), and only 9 of the fatalities have been identified.

C'mon. You started a sentence. .... (?)
I'M NOT JOKING HERE!!!!!!!
With me being a musician, let me tell you, flash pods aren't very dangerous. They have been used for decades, and a band shooting off 50 in a single show is not unheard of.
This is just a case of too many things went bad at the same time. I really hope this doesn't cause ridiculous legislation to ban them. They are very important for a stage show.
I would use them, they just cost too much. [img]frown.gif[/img]
On a slightly lighter note, if I had to pick a way to die, (me being a guitarist and all) Could it be any greater then your music burning the place down? I've said many times before show, let's blow the roof off, let's rock these people to hell, ext.... I mean, Great white did this....... In my eyes, Ty Longley is a legend.
I bet the fucker didn't even stop playing till the power went out.....
Some may ask what rock n roll is.....
Ty Longley is rock n roll....
That could be quite possibly the worst reply I've ever read.
Ty Longley... weirdo who is too stupid to use flash pods correctly.
Gary- guitarist who flaunts it too much, because he really sucks, and uses the "i play guitar" line to try and pick up girls [img]wink.gif[/img]

I see nothing wrong with that.......
I mean it's better then being a sucky bass player, and never being able to flaunt it.....
(Who cares about bass players?) [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
but my strings are always new, and my equipment in tip top shape [img]wink.gif[/img]
I may not be the best, and I may not brag....
but..
like i've always told anyone who asks...
"i just play."
From a professional standpoint, I wouldnt say it was the bands fault for improper usage. I would say the owner of the club should have said..HEY..i have a styrofoam ceiling in here I dont think fire of any kind is safe..but he didnt..If they had a sprinkler system installed.....this wouldnt have happened...i'd almost say no deaths would have been attributed to burning...trampling..smoke inhalation..maybe...but i truly dont think anyone would have been burned to death..i know the state of Rhode Island requires a system in buildings over a certain square footage..here is a case of the place being to small...i would have thought the owner would have been wise enough to not allow any kind of pyrotechnics in such a small area..but thats just me..and im not saying this to promote my job...im saying it because i beleive in what i do..and see the benefits of it..i joke and say i sit on my ass all day and play connect the dots...but then i see something like this on the news..or read about an apartment building burning down..and i think to myself...if only they had been in the know about fire protection..if only they had spent a lil more money to get one installed....these people might not have lost lives...personal momentos and memories of things past..not just clothing and "stuff"..but things you cant get back..gone forever in a puff of smoke..well..anyways..i'll shut up now.. [img]smile.gif[/img]
I just read an update..and the band says..they had permission..the owner says they didnt..just thought id note that since i was wanting to put the blame on the owner.. [img]redface.gif[/img]

You brought up Ty Longely. I read a local newspaper account of him because he was from the Los Angeles area. Perhaps he loved his music making to the point of not caring about things he should have taken an interest in.
Tard, I admit in my previous post that my sentence just kind of ended, kind of like what happened in the nightclub.
nothing personal to anyone on this thread...
but i'm already waaaay over this issue.
permission or no, i think sprinkler systems are
a definite plus...
