To be fair, the storm came on really quickly and only was slated to last like 20 minutes (which it did). I don't think anyone could have guessed that this would happen or that wind speeds would accellerate that quickly.

A friend of my friend's father was killed :( this is pretty rough.

I saw this on the news last night, very sad. Sent a chill down my spine.

Shit, the design of these stages really need to be looked at and redesigned.

Maybe they should just not bother with roofs over outdoor stages anymore.
