    was he jack-o-lantered to death?
    I've never met Ed,never shook his hand, talked to him or had my picture taken with him.
    But I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

    FAN DIES AT SMASHING PUMPKINS CONCERT
    A Smashing Pumpkins concert in Vancouver, took a tragic turn on Monday night. A man died at the concert, in what may have been a crowd surfing accident. A witness said the man fell while crowd surfing and when he came out the mosh-pit he was lifeless. Vancouver police are investigating the tragedy, but so far have said no foul play was involved.

    sounds like someone trying to crowd surf... nothing to do with a mosh pit.

    I dont understand why someone would say such a thing, very strange.



    Its a shame when something like that happens at a place like a music gig, meant to be a place where people are enjoying themselves. Could have been anything though, doesnt necessarilly look like it was an out of hand mosh pit. You hear of people dying of things like exhaustion at shows.
    People say im paranoid. Well, they dont say it, but i know that's what they are thinking.

    I guess the same reason I don't understand why people get so bent out of shape over words on a computer screen.

    maybe it was a strange thing to type. maybe it was tasteless.maybe
    I should "shut up"

    and maybe you people need to get the stick out of your asses.

    I am truly sorry the dude died. I hope he is crowd surfing up in heaven.

    How classy.

    I honestly couldn't believe this had happened at a Pumpkins concert again when I heard it,I thought it happening back in 96 in Dublin was bad enough but this is dreadful.It's tragic that Roskilde happened to Pearl Jam and that this has happened to the Pumpkins twice when they are two bands who have made a point of telling fans to take care of each other at concerts.
    I really feel sorry for the guy's family,after Roskilde this type of thing never should have happened again.

    it's the clowns that keep commenting on how classless and
    tasteless the comment was that make me laugh.

    let the fucking thing die for fuck's sake and your problem is
    solved.

    oops, I said die.

    Alright... I can see feeling sorry for this guy, but making a big deal over it... no. I mean, yes, it would be completely different if I knew the guy, but the fact is, I don't... so why should I care? I know that's a really negative way of looking at it... but if I started caring about all these little deaths by stupid acts of people (yes, I considering crowd surfing stupid... I mean, look at it... you're being carried by people you don't know, and you could be dropped by any one dumb asshole that doesn't care.. haha) then I would be a complete mess.

    Yes, it's sad the guy died, but whatev, we can't help anything... and feeling sorry for him won't make him come back from death. It just seems that the majority feels like they should show that they're sorry just because that's what the majority does... make themselves look good... now I realize most of you are going to say, "No, because it's respectful and decent." Well then, opinion is opinion.
    If I could, think I would give in.

    Im the most laid back character you could ever meet, i just dont understand why someone would say something like what he said, is that too difficult to understand??!! Christ, I often laugh at jokes that im sure a lot people say are offensive (although secretly laugh at), but what is there to be gained by saying what that guy said? There is being laid back and then there is just being immature.
    People say im paranoid. Well, they dont say it, but i know that's what they are thinking.
  • Blind MelonBlind Melon Posts: 911
    What is there to be gained by anything that is said? You die in the end anyway. I was apathetic towards what has been said, but I've said things like that before about even more tragic events... 9/11 mind you, pearl harbor... all that shit, and it's on a more massive scale... and yet, people laugh at jokes like that too, so why getting so upset over one guy?
    If I could, think I would give in.

    I think life is sacred pretty much whatever, so something like this is sad to me; just in the same way I think it is sad when I hear about a soldier dying, or people dying in natural disasters. Having lost a few people in my life it makes me feel for those left behind, because I can identify with that gutting feeling. I think the comment the first guy made was just a bit tasteless and not needed.

    And Blind Melon - I bet you would be the first to complain if people started joking about Shannon Hoon's death.
