The memorial garden is beautiful. At least those who lost their lives haven't been forgotten.
Very inspiring. ❤️
My best Friend lost a pal in the fire. He was sharing a photo of his infant Son with his pal and how he could hardly believe it had been 19 years.
Another Friend of the young Man that died in the fire said his Brother who also was Friends with the young Man would never allow Great White to play around him. He said “ They killed my Friend.”
Very sad.
they have. tens of millions of other Americans have died from far worse. Going to any nightclub is absolutely DANGEROUS
My fathers memorial is in the middle of the screen at 0:48. I was only 5 in 03 when he passed. r.i.p to all who perished in that fire.
I’m sorry to hear that!!! Make your father proud !!! I am a father now and I play music all the time for my son!!!
Oh man I’m so sorry to read this🥲...that video was so hard to watch of that night...But I pray ur father died quickly. And I’m sure u have made him proud and kept his memory alive. May he rest in RIP. My sincere condolences, truly
@@pickford3152 appreciate you guys
Sending you much love🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 stay strong brother and Never Quit!
Im so sorry
He was not going after his guitar. Witnesses say he used it to break open windows. He went back in for his best friend and to help others. As well as one of the security guards went in and out and ended up dying. But he saved multiple people
Yes, and he wasn't found "right there" He was found further away over where the windows would be.
My father was a Firefighter/EMT who responded there. He’d been on the job for over 40 years and said this was the worst he’s ever seen - he retired a year or so later.
This is one of the many fires they teach us about in the fire academy. It was sad learning about it.
You father is a Hero. My cousin Jason Morton died in fire. I can’t imagine how traumatic it must have been for your dad , other firemen and first responders. ❤️🙏
My brother In was a police officer that was there he said the same thing
There is a 7-part series on TH-cam, simply called "The Station," that features some of the people involved. The most moving part (to me) was a paramedic telling the story of one of the burn victims who was alive when they first got to her, but who ultimately died of her wounds. His telling of that story is simply beyond description....you just have to watch it, and then you'll understand.
@@crocodile1313 wow. I never saw it. I’ll definitely watch it My cousin was Jason Morton and he died in the fire. I grew up 1/2 mile from The Station. Rhode Island is So small that everyone either lost a family member or friend. I worked as an RN before I moved from RI and took care of parents who lost children in the fire. It’s so sad and affected many families in RI and Massachusetts.
I spent so many nights in that club. My wife at the time worked for a local radio station and had tickets, but I didn’t feel like going I couldn’t believe what I saw on the news that night.
you should write
@@F417H He just did! lol
Wow, thank you for sharing. A decision made in a split second can change your life. It always amazes me.
My BIL & his buddy had car trouble on the way & decided to bail on the idea of going to the show.
Happy for them but, crushed about EVERY ONE of the victims.💔
🤘
da fack
I was supposed to be there that night but changed my mind due to a sleet storm that was rolling in. My good friend Johnny worked the front door and he helped save many lives, unfortunately I lost 4 friends that night. The restaurant across the street, the Cowessett Inn, was turned into a temporary triage unit for the victims and first responders. It was an extremely devastating night / day in Rhode Island history. God bless all of the fallen.
💛💐🤍
😔 ... my condolences
ALl due to human error
I would really like to talk to you about your experience
Don’t watch final destination
nothing makes up for such a careless tragedy, but this garden is a beautiful tribute to the victims and memorial for the event.
The irony is that the cameraman was there doing a documentary on nightclub safety. He left fast and survived but captured the most chilling footage ever.
Yeah, I've seen the footage he took that night and he was close to the stage but he was one of the first to realize something was wrong and he started walking towards the exit almost immediately, which ultimately saved his life. Had he waited just a few more seconds, he probably would've perished too.
The thing I remember most about this entire situation is Raul “Mike” Vargas, the man who survived not only a motorcycle accident a few years before this tragedy, but also survived this fire by being under all those people in the crush right there where the door was. He was the last person to be pulled out alive, and aside from a burn on his leg, he was otherwise, physically unharmed. He went through some terrible things but still seemed like he was grateful to be here. I hope that wherever he is, he’s doing alright and I wish him well. 🧡
I see Mike at some of the Anniversaries. He’s always hoodied-up and avoiding the local news gaze.
But he seemed great and, once I made sure he didn’t need some private time, he was downright chatty.
He told me the fire wasn’t so bad until it got oxygen from newly broken windows and opened doors. And then it went crazy.
That building was a restaurant before a club, therefore grandfathered and sprinklers were not mandatory. Within weeks after this fire, Sprinklers became mandatory for any business that occupies more than 100 people That law applies in Massachusetts as well.
Also, Massachusetts had a large fire in the 40's, 200 (?) died in Boston. Same kinda thing, flammable decorations went up, and no way out.
@@uTube486 Yes, that was at The Coconut Grove in 1942.
@@johnnycomelately5914 I was raised in Rhode Island, and my mum talked of it.
@@uTube486 492 people died at the Coconut Grove fire in November 1942.
Ya, I'm not sure why these guys didn't look all this up BEFORE they did the video. I had to look to the comments before looking it up because I couldn't remember why.... I know it was VERY dark in there on a regular night, the ceiling was black was all remember from the place. I was there the week before this happened and remembered friends talking about going, but I laughed bc "Great White"... Glad they didn't go either
That video has haunted me for a long time, I’ve become a bit of a killjoy on a night out because I’m constantly checking that there are multiple, accessible fire exits, that there aren’t too many people around us, etc.
Sounds to me like you need to talk to someone. That kind of paranoia isn't healthy.
@@SkunkApe407 Thank you for caring, I am naturally a very anxious person, so I’m on the lookout for other things as well, but this incident definitely made me more aware of fire hazards, got me thinking about situations that I otherwise wouldn’t plan for (stampedes, crushes). It does mean I’m a whizz kid when we do fire safety at work 😂
@@HannahDanii I have service related PTSD, so I know full well what you're going through. That's actually why I said something. Occupational therapy has actually helped me a lot with coping. While vigilance is never a bad thing per se, there does come a point where it becomes detrimental to normalcy. If you find it hindering your ability to enjoy life, please find someone to talk to. You'd be surprised how easy it gets once you find an outlet, and there are TONS of us out here that have dealt with this issue, or currently are, and many of us are more than happy to help others on the same path. If formal therapy isn't an option for whatever reason, there are a myriad of online resources and support groups to take advantage of. Take care of your nugget, it's the only one you get. Best of luck to you.
Hannah Danii: Sounds like a smart way to be! Prevention is always a good thing! Too bad the ship owners of the Titanic didn't think like you!
Skunk Ape: Lots of people who didn't even serve in the military suffered from PTSD! Like the kids who grew up in the 1960's jumping under our school desks during the Cuban Missile Crisis! That week was pure HELL! Closest we have ever been to Nuclear War!!!!!! Thank God , US Navy WWII veteran President John F. Kennedy was at the helm !!!!
It's because of this disaster that whenever I'm at a club, I don't care how big or small it is, I always look for the exits prior to see where I can go.
When you are out of your house you should be careful
I like the thing about this big bar I used to go to, where they had 3 large garage-type roll up doors with glass panes. They would keep them up in the summer and down in the winter. So if there ever was a fire in that place, those big doors could roll up and everyone could get out safely.
Good job 👍
It’s great seeing you teach others. I know some TH-camrs act like they are a celebrity and don’t wanna teach younger TH-camrs. Great Job!
Lamont I have a question about your Mac Miller video…
Looking good sexy man. Slim n trim 😊👍🏼✌🏼😎😍🤗
Hi lamont great video
@@beckyb.4592 lemmmmme get that Becky
My mom used to go there all the time with her friends. In her words, "the place was a dump, but the bands were decent and the drinks were cheap." She lost three friends that night. It's both horrifying and fascinating how so many people can die in a span of minutes.
I really respect that you actually travel to these places rather than sitting in your bedroom like most other youtube true horror content makers. The footage of the station nightclub fire was one of the most horrifying videos I have ever seen. The speed of which that whole building went up in just a couple of minutes just shocked me to my core, let alone the screams and the human crush that resulted. Really traumatic. Can't imagine what it would have been like to actually be there.
A nightclub in Brazil also caught on fire because of fireworks during a show. Hundreds died. All very sad.
I lived around the corner from there. and my daughter worked nights at the gas station at the top of the hill on the right side. I tried my hardest to win tickets for my now ex-husband, but thank god I didn't. My daughter and her friend helped some of the survivors to get to safety she had nightmares for months. I still remember it like it was yesterday. About 2 months later we moved to NC and followed the story online or through friends. I think under the pavilion they buried all the mementos people left after the fire
I used to live on Mary Ave and driving by the station going to that same gas station. I saw the fire with my own eyes
I watched a documentary about it and it literally took 1.5 minutes for the building to catch on fire. They called the foam that was on the walls "liquid gasoline" because it's that flammable.
Looks like a lot of thought went into that memorial site. Thank you to those responsible! A very fitting memorial to all the victims indeed!
Absolutely beautifully done
I did a door supervision training course (here in the UK) in 2013 and this event was brought up with regards to handling people in an emergency. We were taught that in an emergency people's instincts will be to leave the way the came in. We were taught to bark instructions at people; some to use one exit, some to use another. Flight attendants will do the same if the emergency slides are in use.
A theater I go to announces to look for the exit nearest you and keep in mind that it is not necessarily the one you came in.
@@davidcattin7006 - the exit door near the stage opened inwards (a fire code violation) and was also completely engulfed in flames because, it too, was covered in the same highly flammable polyurethane packing foam that lined the ceiling. Not to mention what good are fire exits when you have idiots taking their sweet ass time egressing and exiting and then loitering at the exit the instant they set foot outside, causing a bottleneck at the main exit that trapped and killed most of the people caught behind the tangle of bodies?
Your channel rocks my dude. You do a terrific job of educating the audience and you do it very respectfully. What a horrific event.
For anyone looking for more information on this fire, the book “Killer Show: The Station Nightclub Fire, America’s Deadliest Rock Concert” pretty much covers everything from the history of the nightclub, the origins of the soundproof foam, the events that night, and the lawsuits afterwards. It’s a really great book, tough to read due to the emotional aspects of this disaster, but it’s worth it.
check
Read it last year. Fantastic book. Can't recommend it enough.
Very underrated band
So sad
Agreed. a Must read
Sprinklers would have suppressed fatal levels of heat and toxic fumes long enough for a safe evacuation of the structure. Due to the lack of sprinklers conditions within the club became deadly within ninety seconds of ignition. Sprinklers would have likely prevented these fatal conditions from occurring at all.
There are some excellent modeling videos of this fire which demonstrate what sprinklers could have done that night.
If I'm not mistaken, club management had locked all the exits to keep people from sneaking in without paying the cover charge. In that case, the sprinklers probably would have only delayed the inevitable. This building was poorly built, and was a disaster waiting to happen.
@@SkunkApe407 Nope, not in this case. That's happened in others clubs, but this one had 4 available exits. The problem was the vast majority of people headed for the doors thru which they'd entered the club, causing the jam in the doorway that ultimately resulted in so many deaths.
At one exit near the stage a bouncer not realizing it was an emergency, initially told people the door was for the band only, causing some to head to the main door, which might be what you were thinking of.
It's a sad, hard lesson that can teach the rest of us to remember to always check where multiple emergency exits are located, and not just to rely on going out where we came in. :/
@@nancyandrews398 I knew about the pile-up, but I was almost certain that I had heard that two exits had been locked.
Edit: I double checked, and I guess I was wrong. Now I have to figure out what I'm confusing this with. This is going to bother me to no end.
@@SkunkApe407: It's an urban legend, along with Ty Longley dying because he chose to run back inside to rescue a guitar. Neither are true. Wikipedia and Rolling Stone report the Ty story as fact even though the witness statement of survivor Bill Long tells what really happened.
@@myoldvhstapes yeah, I guess so. The only thing similar that I could find was a Boston nightclub called Cocoanut Grove in the 1940's. Must be something born out of a combination of the two, or my brain mixed them up on me.
Oh I'm so y'all got together. I've been waiting and hoping. Y'all were my 1st 2 favorite TH-cam people and still are. Y'all ROCK!!!
The happenings at that concert were awful. Just purely devastating. I hope every victim is at peace. The memorial is beautiful.
Thanks guys!! Love y'all
An amazing a fitting memorial garden for those poor people...I like how they use what looks like Stage floor monitors for each person's own personal memorial. Attention to detail is great...and the timeline part I've never seen done before. Awful tragedy but a beautiful place for friends and family of those who died to go and pay their respects...or even just members of the public. Great video guys
This is why i avoid packed nightclubs
I have never thought about that. Until now. I won’t look at crowds the same anymore.👀
This is why I always avoid crowds! Always!
The crowd at Las Vegas-? The hotel shooter?
The very first thing I do at ANY large gathering is look for exits and the closest way out in an emergency.
Same here.
After reading the book “Killer show” I will never put myself in a crowded room, hall or building unless I’m right next to an exit.
Being a Rhode Islander it’s a day you’ll never forget where you were when you 1st heard the news. Truly a tragedy of errors. For many years it was just an empty lot with bouquets of flowers strewn about honoring those who perished, Eventually enough funding was generated for a beautiful memorial. Chris & Lamont that was a wonderful tribute. 👍👍 up
I can just imagine. I live hundreds of miles from Rhode Island, but I'll never forget when the news broke. I've been haunted by it ever since and have bad crowd anxiety. But as much as it has affected me, I know it's nothing compared to what the people in that community have been through.
It won't bring anyone back, but it really is a beautiful shrine. RIP.
That's about the most beautiful ceremonial monument I've seen in a long time.
I loved playing the Station. I was in basic training and two Sergeants I didn't know asked I any Soldiers were from RI. They then asked if we frequented the Station. I played there a ton and knew everyone there. My battle lived on Silverwood Ave right behind there... they brought is into a side room and at the time the death toll was at 30 and expecting to rise... I was shocked. Incredibly sad day in music, and Rhode Island history. Great job on the video and ty
Yes! You two collaborated again! Great video.
Chris, ya know what makes your videos so unique from other folks? The care that you put into them. You really seem to dig through the history of whatever you're presenting to the world, and by the end, your voice seems somber when it's a historical tragedy like this event. You back your videos up with the facts and really draw me into the moment. I never realized such a big memorial erected from this, but it reminds me of the video you done from the Oklahoma city bombing and how that event was memorialized. Both were tragic events with many families left to ask, "why me? Why them?" Sadly, I'm reminded of a local helicopter crash near Pigeon Forge, Tennessee where a mom, her 2 kids, her daughters boyfriend, and the helicopter pilot were all killed in a horrible accident due to mechanical failure. Regardless of whatever events, lives were lost in all of these tragedies and my condolences to those souls and the families who continue to tread through the losses of their loved ones. Thanks for sharing, brother.
How terrible. I have bad dreams about this and I have never been to Rhode Island. For those of you who did not make it to the show, I am glad that you didn’t go. I am so sorry that you lost friends.
That display with the timeline is the most complete I’ve ever seen on a memorial itself. Beautifully designed and executed memorial.
Thank you Chris & Lamont for doing this..I’m just watching for the first time. I vividly remember this tragedy. The Derdarian name I knew as one of them was a newscaster in Boston, where I live. By the Grace of God I’m here today because when I was in my 20s & clubbing in the early 80s, those clubs were often massive, and dark. With lots of rooms & hallways to get lost in if there’d been a fire. Not all had sprinklers either! The Rat in kenmore square, Boston, was in a basement with just one narrow staircase to the main floor as the only exit!! I at least hope we learned something from this tragedy, for all those young, enthusiastic lives cut short by stupidity & greed. Thank you, guys! I plan to visit that beautiful memorial garden. Love from Michelle in Boston
The footage is shown often in Australia, highlighting the dangers of fires and how fast they engulf the indoors.
Good to see this memorial.
This was such a tragic and preventable loss of life. My deepest condolences for the families of those who perished. I went to high school with Great White guitarist Mark Kendall (Marina High School, Huntington Beach, CA). I’m happy Mark survived; it is unfortunate not everyone did. RIP
My late great friend Scott passed away there. I still miss him so very much!!!! Rest in peace All who passed as well!!!!
What stunned me most about the video is the time it took from the first spark to the front door being completely clogged was only about 1 minute total.
Thank you for posting this. I have watched a number of documentaries on the Station Club Disaster but to see those people who were lost memorialized like this is truly beautiful. From the horror of the fire to the peace of this memorial is a gift to all the grieving families.
Beautiful place, sad tragic story.
Your videos are great! Its great to see you make a video in my little hometown, honoring those who lost their lives so tragically. My uncle was lucky enough to escape the fire that night, but the collective loss felt throughout the community is unfathomable over 18 years later. To this day, when I drive by the location, the magnitude of the devastation that was seen when day broke the following morning is seared in my mind.
You're always so respectful to everybody and everything. You seem like a real good man
The memorial garden is an beautiful. Thank you for collaboration and telling us this story.
How cool to see you and Lamont together in a video! You guys are both awesome channels!
Nice to see quite a few uploads from both of your channels in the past couple days!
Gut wrenched with guilt when folly fails.
Why is that when I wasn't even there?
Sincere thanks Chris, Lamont. 👍👍
I’ve heard of this before but never had the chance to look into it. I love how your videos and Lamont’s give us the details and are so respectful, no music, just info.
It’s cool that the memorials look like monitors for the musicians. They loved rock!
That video is gut-wrenching to watch. I always feel like I want to reach through the video screen and try to help pull some of those people out. I was 33 when this happened, and most of the victims were around my age. God rest their souls.
I remember this happening as a child. This is an amazing memorial. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for putting up this video. I am really glad there is a memorial to those who perished. I do live events for a living, and this tragedy still haunts me.
You two did a great job talking about this tragedy and now memorial park. Thank you.
Beautiful Memorial
Thank you for this video and keeping these people's memory alive.
Enjoyed the video. This is a very tragic story. You and Lamont are my two favorite TH-camrs. I love the Scarlett Motive, too!
I lived in Warwick back then was at the Station the week prior and was suppose be there but decicded to stay on vacation few more days than planned so I missed the show and it hurts always will . RIP my friends .
Wow that's a crazy story!
R.I.P
@@F417H 🙏 Have a Good night .
I’ve found this channel a few months ago and I’m loving the content. I remember hearing about this a few years ago and it’s very unfortunate what happened. Thank you for covering this man, keep up the great work!
☕️🥄
That is a nice Memorial. Excellent respectful episode as usual. Lamont, watched your mausoleum visit last night, I couldn't believe it...
There’s another New England nightclub fire that happened at the Coconut Grove nightclub in Boston on November 28th 1942. Almost 500 people died that night/in the following days and I never knew about it until researching the Station Nightclub fire. There is now only a small memorial plaque left at the original location.
Good job guys. Brought back some memories and tears.
I remember. Beautiful memorial. May they rest in peace. 💜
I’m a teacher for the public school system in Maryland and a few years ago we did “Crowd Management” training. The training incorporated this tragic night, using some of the raw footage. It was absolutely terrifying! RIP to all the souls lost that night and love to the survivors and anyone affected.
Another interesting video. 👍 1:03 The Gazebo is where the bathrooms and the office would have been. Coming in through the archway (the entrance) the bar and kitchen would have been to the left, the dance floor and stage would have been to the right, and the bathrooms would been straight ahead. The reason the building didn't have a sprinkler system was because it was built in 1946 before sprinkler systems were required. Most old buildings are still not required to have sprinkler systems today. However this building and been remodeled and converted multiple times back and forth between nightclub and restaurant and it had been gutted in a previous fire and repaired. There were questions as to why it wasn't required to have a sprinkler system installed during those remodels. Which nobody seems to have a good answer for.
Thanks for saying where the rooms were. I couldnt figure it out when I visited there a few months ago.
Great video Chris and Lamont.
Good Job! My brother was one of the 100 people killed and he had to identified thru dental records! And he was one of the ones that the bouncer didn’t let out that stage door!
so sorry for your loss ♥️
Did that bouncer survive? I heard a lot about him.
@@IsabelBam People said it was Scott Vierra, because he was closest to that exit at the time,someone said it’s the one who you can see with the cigarette in his mouth in the photos. He got out, through the exit he kept blocking but his wife was found in the pile at the doorway.
Dude your very respectful in all your videos, keep up the good work..
Love your channel as well as “Lamont at Large”. I think it is really cool to have you two on the same video. Thanks for sharing.
I live one city over (Warwick) and remember this night vividly. I'd been to the club many times before, as I have friends whose bands would play there. I can only imagine how horrific it was that night.
Beautiful memorial. If I was anywhere close, it would be top of my list to visit.
It is the most horrific thing I have ever seen. My heart continues to bleed for the souls lost.
I made my self watch that raw footage of what happened in that fire.
After that I will NEVER question a fire inspector, and tell people who gripe about “rules and regulations costing to much”, that they should watch the raw footage of this fire, unedited and raw.
Most rules and regulations are there for a freaking reason.
As a moderate conservative, and disaster buff, I will NEVER argue against the fire code, or most other codes for that matter.
May the 100 who perished RIP.😢
Edit. I know many buildings were updated and had sprinkler systems installed almost immediately in Rhode Island.
I just hope the dead and injured sufferings where not on vain.
There were so many injured the children’s ST. Jude hospital opened their doors for the injured and burn victims.
Shriner's Children's Hospital
How about this plan? We dont set fireworks off INSIDE a building. Its sad the low end of the gene pool had to kill 100 people due to a lack of common sense.
Yea listening to those people trapped in that doorway as the fire reaches them caused me much distress.
Rules and regulations are written in blood...
@@sealboy1211 Agreed. That is the pivotal moment of horror for me. I'm a combat veteran and have _never_ seen anything as bad as that.
This was such a tragedy. I was asked to go see the concert but I had other plans. It was so surreal to see this on the news later that evening and my heart goes out to all of the families! I have not been by this area in quite some time, so it was nice to see the memorial that has been set up.
Great tribute to those affected by this tragedy!!! I just watched one of Lamont at Large’s video when he visits a cemetery in Kansas and discussed the grave of a 16 year old that perished in an airplane crash in Lexington, KY back in 2006. There is a beautiful memorial in the Arboretum at the University of Kentucky that pays tribute to those lost in the flight 5191 crash. Those that watch you from this area would be honored to see a tribute video if you two are in this area!
Beautiful memorial
This needs to be a documentary series on TV with you and Lamont.. The memorial site is beautiful.
I remember VH1Classic covering this incident for days. One one saddest moments in music history still today that shouldn’t have happened. Rest in paradise all 100 who died that day. 🙏🏻
It is a beautiful memorial.....may their souls be at peace. It is sacred ground and this is what should be there. A lot of hard work,love and respect was put into this.
Very sad... I remember this happening and it being on the local news. Very nicely done remembrance.
My dad used to play at that club often and almost attended the Great White show that night. So many family friends lost... I work down the road now and pass by this memorial daily. They did such an amazing job with it. Thank you for your respect, knowledge, and taking the time to create your content!
Two of my favorite people together in one video. So glad you two got together on this. I'm glad to see they have made a really nice memorial garden where the Station once stood. One thing that bothers me is how they tried to partially blame the camera man. He was the first one to start heading to the door as soon as he saw the fire. You can also hear him telling people to get out, but people thought it was part of the show at first. The whole thing is just tragic.
:)(: sweettreats agreed nice comment.
The camera man was sued in court because it was proven, through his own footage, that he stopped at the bottle neck to get more footage of the fire. He literally stood his ground, blocking people, for 13 seconds. 13 seconds may not seem like alot but they timed the whole event start of the fire to the door being blocked and people only had 90 seconds to get out or else they were trapped. 13 seconds is a long time to stop and hold your ground when you only have 90 seconds to get 460 people out the door
Beautiful memorial. Doesn't look like the same place from the video. Tragic all around. Lots can be learned from this.
Another great video. Thank you both for sharing this story so well.
Wooow two of my favorite TH-camrs exploring together!!! I love it thank you 🙏🏻 💕💕💕
Another amazing video. I remember when this tragedy occurred and it was terrible. I'm amazed at how beautiful the memorial park is.
Very well done on this video. May all lost lives rest easy
This is such a beautiful memorial, god bless you Lamont an friend.❤❤❤
Love your videos! The 2 people i consistently watch everytime i see a new video of are these 2 dudes. Lamont and mobile instinct are an awesome team
I lived 1 mile from The Station My cousin Jason Morton died in fire. He got out but went back in to help. He was 6’3” and strong … tried helping but then got stuck and died. Very sad. There is a memorial to some of the victims at St Ann’s Cemetery in Cranston, RI. Some were buried there. That place had very low ceilings , dark and dingy. So very sad 🙏
Hero.
Wow, my condolences!! It must have been some people he saved who told you about his heroism?
@@myoldvhstapes Oh yes. They came to his funeral. No one imagined the fire would be this bad and move so fast. Sad day in RI History
I’m from Rhode Island and remember that well 😢
I like how they put the vinyl record adapter shape on the benches that is so cool.
They did an outstanding job on the memorial. It is gorgeous!
Thank you for videoing this. It is beautiful. I enjoy all of your videos
The Station was a popular place to see music acts and I saw Warrant, Blue Oyster Cult, and Great White (in 1999) there. I still feel nauseous whenever I see something about it even though I moved away from RI some time ago. The owners were two brothers, one of whom was a local TV reporter. There was no sprinkler system as the local fire codes did not require them because the building was so old (1940's or 50"s?). I'm so glad to see that a proper memorial site has been constructed there, and I think I might visit it next time I'm visiting family in the area. I seems like everybody that lived in southeastern New England at the time knew a victim, a victim's family member, or were familiar with a survivor. I did too. What a terrible tragedy it was and is. So many suffered so terribly.
I love it when you do VLOGS with Lamont
The EXACT same thing happened in a nightclub here in Brazil (Kiss Nightclub) back in 2013. The aftermath: 242 deaths.
Most beautiful memorial I have ever seen. Thanks for this one
Lovely memorial. So sad.
You're in good company with Lamont at Large. Thank you both for this video. Never heard of this story until today. Such a tragedy 😢
