Re: Stage collapse in Indy
Can it really be blamed on the builders, seeing that it was not poor construction? And do they have to be insured? So many questions.

yes, there are a lot of questions... I don't feel like it needs to be blamed on Mid America Sound.
I noticed on the news also that one of the funerals was at Calvary Tabernacle and Bro. Mooney was officiating. The man was one of the sound/lighting guys, and I am not sure of his relation to the church.

Re: Stage collapse in Indy
His mom and sis attended ,there are several stage designs, the one in our city which stays up all summer is a scaffold design, that was a post type truss,the former can take alot more stress and wind from my understanding.Ps, everything is insured in the millions i promise ya.I dont blame the scaffold company, but the organizers knew that storm was coming through and should have had everyone evacuated, but they waited too long.If ya watch the video, half the crowd ran ,but the wrong direction becuse the other half,upwind, just stood/sat there watching it and screaming like morons in admiration.imo.

I don't wait for anyone to let me know when it's time to take cover. I make that call myself. Apparently, some of the people in the video have no sense of judgement when it comes to bad weather...

Re: Stage collapse in Indy
I'm really unsure about the stage, and I agree there should be inspections on the stages. There will be a lot change because of this, that is for sure.
I think there were people trying to get out of there, and I can also imagine that they officials were trying to figure out how to get that many people out quickly without them running each other over.
I have to say I was proud of the people who were there thinking of others and doing all they could to help the victims.
