TRIGGER WARNING Death and Injury from Trampling, Fire, and Smoke Inhalation
On the evening of February 20th, 2003, hundreds of people had filled The Station Nightclub in Warwick, Rhode Island. They were all there for a concert headlined by Great White, a rock band that formed in the late 70s, and has been together ever since, even though some members have changed over the years. Before the band was even able to finish their first song though, a fire ignited that quickly spread throughout the venue. 100 people lost their lives that night, and 230 more were injured. 132 people escaped without any physical injuries, but the trauma from the night remains with them.
