The Station Nightclub, Rhode Island

Tragedy can strike at anywhere, and at any time. Death rarely makes itself known before it crosses the threshold - it simply walks right into your house and grips you out of nowhere with its icy fingers. You could be doing anything, without a care in the world, walking the dog, drinking with friends, watching a movie. You could even just out at a rock show.

Just moments before the unthinkable happens, a member of the band looks back and stares at hell right in the face. On February 20th, 2003, not one of the 100 music lovers who went to The Station Nightclub thought that this gig would be their last. But the fire started by faulty wiring would go on to claim a horrifying number of lives, and this random photo shows where the nightmare began.
