    Terrorism talk already making the rounds, bomb disposal on site but nothing confirmed so wait and see I guess ?

        A car's dashcam parked around a thousand feet away captured a flash and the sound of the explosion.

          Was there with my daughter, 30 seconds later we'd have been in the foyer area. Lots if talk about balloons or speakers blowing up.

          I'm no weapons expert but the place stank of gunsmoke and lots if injuries right in front of us.

          And it's right at the entrance to my clients office, guess I'll be staying away tomorrow.

            Talk of a suicide bomber in the foyer area.

            Shocking, I condemn this and all acts of urban terrorism.

            Today, my thoughts are with the families of the deceased innocent victims and those injured in the atrocity.

              It is now be referred to as a suspected terrorist attack. No doubt the "suspected" prefix will soon be gone.

                  Jeez.....lucky escape. Glad you are ok.
                  Terrible news, and of all the concerts to choose as well knowing what the audience profile would have been.

                    So 22 dead, 59 injured.

                    That'll be 21 innocents and one worthless piece of tulip.
