A) In a they said/they said dispute between a club owner and a band, I do not automatically take the word of a club owner. In fact, I trust them less than I trust the musicians.
AND - the article you posted indicated that improperly used pyrotechnics did not start a fire in another club because the material surrounding the stage in THAT club was fire-retardant.
B) The back wall of the stage was lined with cheap, highly-flammable packing material as a substitute for acoustic foam. Is that the band's fault? NO. Is it a fire code violation? YES.
Maybe you need to think again.

I kind of have to agree with you to a certain extent, although I don't really trust the band more. The lead singer especially was known for his lawlessness.
But it seems as if the club owners, if they didn't have things up to code, are in the wrong. Especially in the event that the band asked permission.

In NO way am I defending or absolving the owners from responsibility, I'm only trying to illustrate that this group has a documented history of irresponsible conduct - unless all these clubowners are conspiring against them.
It's like "Yeah, we're reckless and dangerous - but they let us!"
