Hope you get it back. I got pretty much all of my bank account wiped out once, just before Christmas of all times. The bank failed to stop pending payments going out (all payments to various European airlines) but refunded everything a few weeks later.

Explosion at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester.

I'm seeing Maiden twice this weekend, and I know others are too, so this must be very alarming to us all.

Security should be maximised for the next week though, which is something.

 

[Brigantium]

This is looking grim

 

[The Flash]

20 confirmed dead already. Likely to increase. Fucking hell.

Most people dead/injured are probably kids and teens, not that adults dying is more acceptable.

 

[LooseCannon]

Yeah it's going to be extra tight security for sure. Fuck. That's fuck.

 

[Brigantium]

Police have so far confirmed 19 dead and 50 injured, and they are currently treating it as terrorism

From what I've read on social media it was apparently a nail bomb. Also a lot of people have said that there was not a lot of security at the entrace. Just scan and go.

More than 20 dead, more than 10 under 18s, what a scummy place the world has become.

The arena say the explosion happened outside the venue in a public area.

Jesus this sucks. A terrible tragedy that will make people more wary of concerts in general, I think. Fuck these assholes who ruin people's good times.

It's a very very small comfort, but to think that this could have been two weeks ago at a Maiden concert is insane and I'm glad we didn't lose anybody from this forum or the Maiden family. It's disgusting and depressing that these concert goers lost their lives just for having a night out at the show.

 

[Travis The Dragon]

This news is just so fucking sad and horrible! I can't help but fear that me, a close family member or friend or someone on here will some day be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Statistically, going to a concert is still a very safe activity, and this will unfortunately lead to more security theatre. If this is another lone wolf or small cell attacker, we need to really get to the point where we accept this is the new normal.

Vitt in Estonian literally means cunt, and he's a huge Leavitt indeed.

It's 8 AM and I'm still awake, I don't want to go to sleep at this point but I feel rubbish.

Btw, children among the dead. Which is expected given that Grande is an artist who is most popular in that group.

Too bad the attacker is dead. Would suit them better if their bomb left them crippled like in a certain Metallica song.

I'm glad it wasn't in Birmingham on Sunday...

Iron Maiden played there 14 days earlier.
