Listening to the Dublin 1996 show
Listening to this show in full is pretty weird... according to Listessa, Bernadette O'Brien was crushed during Zero and never recovered. really weird knowing that considering how many more songs they play without having any idea about the chaos backstage. they only found out at the encore break. this recording of MCIS is heartbreaking.
https://archive.org/details/tsp1996-05-11.ss http://www.spfc.org/online/qualitypo...content_id=534 "When the band did come on the crowd went half crazy..it was pretty rough but not moshing more so much pushing that you couldn't breath..they were a lot of crowdsurfers too(later on in the concert billy got so fed up with the crowdsurfers hurting people that he said that if the security caught anyone coming over the top that they should be fucked outside).. the first two songs were pretty rough but when Zero came on the place went crazy..the surge from behind was incredible..half way through the song myself and about 50 others fell down straight in front of the stage and the thing was that people weren't giving us hand up and they way we had fallen its impossible to get up unless you can get someone to give you a hand..I was on top of a girl myself but I couldn't get up cause just no-one was giving me a hand or anything..and while all these people were down the crowd surfers kept jumping in on top of us.. this is when the girl was crushed..she was unable to breath for two minutes and was pronouced brain dead by the time the ambulance came back stage Billy stopped after they saw what was happening in that song.. If he had known then what had happened to the girl the concert would have stopped there completly...but they stopped for a long time to let the people get out and I myself couldn't stay there and I didn't feel safe for my girlfriend either..I mean I went to the concert to listen to the music not to hurt somebody..the concert continued on and the pumpkins did play well .there was a lot of crowd surfing and it was sorta heavy but not too bad until BWBW which made almost everybody go crazy.. The pumpkins went off after cherub rock and normally they come back on after that song for the encore..when they came on with no instruments I knew something was wrong and then billy informed us that a girl was seriously hurt back stage and that they couldn't continue and how they were so freaked out..billy was sorta crying on the drum kit then and all the band were really upset..James had said earlier that night "It's only a rock concert its not worth dying over"..D'arcy was freaked out by people shouting and smiling at them to play more as theu hadn't got there moneys worth.." |

Very sad show and a scary experience by all accounts. People had a hard time just standing up in that mosh pit. I saw the band not long before that and it's a strange feeling to know something that bad happened around the same time.
Billy handled the crowd quite well. This recording shows how stupid crowds can be. Billy just begs over and over, and yet some people are still booing when they say the show is over. People in the back/at the balcony don't seem to realize what was really going on upfront. I don't know if it can be confirmed or not that Bernadette was crushed during "Zero" ? I've never heard about this before. Might as well been during "Fuck You" (big break from the band after that song). Not that it makes any difference Last edited by dodoz : 03-31-2015 at 12:23 PM. |

Oh, hey, nice, they redesigned archive.org
...that's really pretty sad. MCIS has a real different tone when you listen while thinking about that |

The band is all worried and concerned and some girl next to the taper is going "D'Arcy! Woo! D'Arcy!"...

"We cannot continue the concert, we're very sorry. That's it, the show is over"
Boos, random cries of "noooooo! nooooo!" "Don't fucking boo...Do you fucking understand what he said ?" Noooooo !!!! Nooooo !!!!! |

Last SP concert I was at one guy bumped into the dude next to him. It was pretty intense for a few seconds.

i always thought it was interesting how Billy never really dwelled on this or Jonathan's death at all really, whereas the PJ will milk anything for substance.

an intense show gone horribly wrong. It's good they aborted it.
On a side note: Did any lower-gen DDC come out than DDC-3? Not that it matters much |
