RI nightclub fire blog
Sheila informs that Projo.com's Rhode Island nightclub fire blog is now outside the company's registration requirements and out on the open Web here. The blog includes a list of victims, coverage of the national news media's reporting on the tragedy, the status of Ty Longley, rhythm guitarist of Great White, who's still listed as "missing," and much more.

Comments
This fire has led to a good example of what K5 is good at, journalism-wise. A former soundman at a Boston club found the contract rider on The Smoking Gun and wrote why he thinks, based on his experience in a similar job, that it's implausible that the soundman at the R.I. club didn't know the band was using pyro. His story is here, and the comments are also full of interesting analysis from others who had small-club jobs and have been in that kind of situation.

Rusty's comments are dead on. Check out the thread at Kuro5hin: You've got a house soundman offering first-person analysis of what goes on at these clubs, and he's joined -- with some agreeing, others disagreeing, but all chiming in with something worth -- by band members, lighting technicians, clubgoers and others. A mix of fact, insight, conjecture and bullshit, but all of it riveting.
