I saw that on Sympatico as well, seems to be a lot if that going around lately. More than 3, actually, however most were lucky with no major injuries or deaths, until this one.
I can see some religious freak saying it's God's way of telling us He doesn't like this new music.
The main thing I've noticed is, the areas these stages are located is flat and wide open spaces. Prime location for "freak" weather.
Of course that is needed to get a lot of people in the venue. Sloppy stage constuction is also a problem. Unfortunately,in order to save a few bucks, the promoter will wait until the very last minute to send in the stage crew, with little time to erect it properly, and no inspection afterwards.
Just my toonies worth.
