I've only seen him once, in Amsterdam. Wasn't in the biggest venues, so was pretty excited for it.Yossarian wrote:I’ve seen Beck about half a dozen times now. He’s never been anything less than excellent live.
The Donington festival was cancelled for a year whilst an inquest took place.
It was found that a “crowd collapse” involving 50 people took place fifteen yards from the front of the stage. The mud in that area caused by several days heavy rain prior to the event made things worse. The band GnR stopped playing temporarily and called for calm in a scene reminiscent of the Stones at Altamont in the film Gimme Shelter, but by the time security had fished out the injured people, two bodies (Alan Dick, 18 and Landon Siggers, 20) were found laying down in four inches of mud and were almost covered over.
They were pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital.
