  • During our last song of our performance at Belgium's Pukkelpop a massive storm starts and rips through the festival. 3 people so far were reported dead and almost 70 people injured. It was a madhouse. Check out my pics of the devastation at www.djbonics.com

    I'm glad they said 'Please exit the tent'. If that tent had collapsed, it would have been hell worse. This is horrible to see. Pukkelpop is in my eyes the coolest festival in Belgium. It hurts to see that people run around as if their life depends on it. Pukkelpop, or any festival for that matter, will never be the same in Belgium.

    on the scene 4 ppl were killed. but i'm also counting the ones that died of their injuries in the following weeks. i am not saying exactly 30 people got their limbs severd, but defenitly more then "a handfull". i have heard this from a friend of mine who was on an internship in the hospital at that time. she said that people with severed limbs were catagorized as "lightly injurd" as their injuries were not life-threating. i will believe her rather then you, no offence.

    they got lucky it was only a microburst, a lot of people arent aware that in europe, the country with most tornados by number is the uk, but those are mostly very weak, but the areas with better conditions to spawn f2 or f3 violent tornados are a small portion of northern italy and all the coastal land from where the allies landed on d-day, going up up up until pretty much denmark, ive read somewhere that the historical data shows that in all of europe, those 2 areas get nasty tornados more often than other places. It could have been a lot worse, these summer festivals i dont think are equipped to deal with an emergency like that

    It was definately a big fault of the organisation. It was obvious that those storms were relatively strong. Each one of them in the surrounding area! You could clearly see on the radar, that a right moving storm with bow-echo signatures was heading right towards Hasselt area! That was about 15-20 min. before the downburst hit the festival! So they surely had seen it coming but they were ignorant enough to ignore it. 15-20 min would've been enough to secure most of the people

    And yeah, maybe the testet on "stormweather" or whatever you may call it. Nah, I don't think they did. Cause THIS was a storm, a violent one to say at least. I wanna know how they "tested" it. It is likely that violent T-Storms cause heavy winds. This downburst in Hasselt had windspeeds of about ~160km/h which is F1/T3 intensity. And it was forecasted that T-Storms in this area had the potential of such significant dimensions! They should've evacuated the place! Seriously....
