December 3rd has a rough history. I woke up this morning, expecting the memorials for 20y since a fire that unnecessarily claimed 6 firefighters in Worcester, MA, barely 20 miles from where I grew up. what I wasn't expecting was tributes from friends in my music family, memorializing another horror story in Cincinnati 20 years prior to the Worcester Cold Storage fire. I had never heard of the tragedy at The Who concert, although I was just over a year old at the time. are there any other tragedies we should remember today? please share. Remembering the Worcester 6 <- if this is behind a paywall, lmk and I will c/p to a spoiler. wiki linkThe Who

Thirty-five years ago in Bhopal, India, pesticide gas escaped from a plant and killed 3,700 men, women, and children and injuring over 15,000.
