Its sad to hear that. Hopefully things like this don't start happening to dubstep.

Yeah, very likely at one of the many dubstep festivals that attract 1.4 million people!
We have a looong way to go before this happens.
Honestly though, given the sheer numbers at an event like that, I'm not surprised.

Really sad, I watched the parade on TV yesterday and suddenly they say people died there at the entrance.
Most people here says the location wasn't suitable for 1,4 milion people...first love parade on a closed area.

Is it just me, or does the loveparade anthem blow?

What the fuck. I can't see how that's what comes into your head when a load of people die.

It wasn't the only. Its a sad & unfortunate loss that shouldn't of happened.
Bah ignore me. My minds not in the best of places at the moment. But it wouldn't be nice to see things like this happening at dubstep events. Or anywhere else actually. I've seen things like this almost happen at nights with lots of filth heads at Matter. People continuously pushing and crushing people in front to try and get in even though they can't.

In the last 15 years or so the overseeing of crowds / events has been a lot better in this country than it used to be. In some places they only let X amount of people into a mosh pit or near the front at a time and make sure itis enforced.

I'd say the policing is partly to blame too. They tried to stop people going in and that's when they started to bum rush the show and got crushed in the tunnel. Sad.

When you expect 800k people to show up, and you get 1.4 million, bad things are inevitably going to happen....
