OMG! I just found out because of Fran's tweet: "Big accident at this Slovak fest. Rigging fell on the punters. 1 dead 100 injured. Festival cancelled. Sad. We're leaving the festival site now." (This was posted 4 hours ago)
Terrible news...

Here's the report from the AFP: Fatal tent collapse closes Slovak music festival

Yikes. That is sad.

I guess it is also a warning to future festival goers, not to seek shelter under tents during bad weather. I never really thought about it having tragic consequences before.

Hi! The accident was really terrible: 1 dead, 3 critically injured, about 40 injured. I´m really sorry for the man who died, for the injured. I hope this won´t happen anymore. link: http://tv.sme.sk/v/10667/nestastie-na-pohode-pad-stanu.html
I know this is not good time for personal wishes but I also hope Travis will visit Slovakia at least one more time.
Take care of yourselves!

it is terrible.. 1 dead, 3 people badly wounded, other 52 people wounded now.. I am so happy not to be there.. and all my friends are ok too..
and maybe I am very selfish, but.. it is a big depression for me, not to see Travis live.. I hope I will see them sometimes..

Oh god, it's so sad to hear that... Fran told us at the Gurten Festival and dedicated the whole gig to those people at the Pohoda... Like he said, a festival should be a place of joy and pleasure and so it's really terrible that something like this happened!
