Fox News is saying they are getting really bad numbers of injuries and fatalities. Saying the explosion looks like it was inside the foyer or ticket area and not in the actual arena.

Fox is saying it sounded like an IED (improvised explosive device).

Awful. At an Ariana Grande concert for God sake - targeting teenage girls and kids with their families.

My mother immigrated to Canada from Derby, England, not that far away.

Well, at least the 19 dead don't have that to worry about anymore.

As a music fan Manchester has always held a special place in my heart. From original British Invasion acts such as The Hollies and Hermans Hermits, to the post-punk period with acts such as Joy/Division/New Order and The Fall, to the acid house/rave period with acts such as Stone Roses and Inspiral Carpets and maybe The Smiths were the best of em all.

Knowing "Madchester" I have no doubt that people in that city will get back to being the irreverent but tough "24 Hour Party People" in due time.

They are saying the injuries are like shrapnel, so they think nails were made to explode out.

I've been reading the updates here as opposed to any other source, and I'm actually surprised this hasn't turned into a political shitfest over a minor disagreement. Good job guys, there's hope for us yet...but don't be stingy with the updates!
