I also live in Greensboro and was in the traffic that night. Still there are flowers for the girls under the overpass where it happened. One of the girls (the one that was Dale Jarrett's crew chief's wife, and a former runner up to Miss NC) had a year old son, who she did not think she would be able to ever have, because she had lived through a
heart transplant) One was only 16 years old and this was her first concert and night on the town with her sisters. The limo driver said that right before they were crashed into, the girls had him put on a Fleetwood Mac cd. That has so haunted me. I was really, really surprised that the fan community never even sent the families a card or anything (that I know of anyway) knowing the warmth and cohesiveness of FM fans. I had wondered if the band even knew, but I did read a quote by Stevie a little while back about being asked who did she lean on when depressed, and she said her brother Chris, and that he was there for her when she was extremely sad and upset about the fans in the accident in Greensboro. I think if anything, the fact that the girls or the trial refers to being Fleetwood Mac fans makes it all that much more poignant. I seldom ever post, but I thought you all might like a bit more info, and those that wish to still send warm thoughts and prayers out to the families.
On a liter note ~
