Arrest made in Super Safe Sunday shooting
June 28, 2005

"Ned is being held in connection with a fatal shooting that erupted near the intersection of Greenwood Road at San Jacinto Street after Sunday’s event. As many as 40 shots are believed to have been fired, leaving four people hospitalized and 41-year-old Leonard Spratt of Shreveport fatally wounded."

What a shock...most of that music is so peace-loving, culturally uplifting and spiritually inspirational. Who would have thought that violence could erupt?

We see riots at the symphony all the time around here. It's really sad. Buncha old men in tuxes going after each other because Der Nibelungenlied stirred them up so much.

Hey, anybody taking bets on the death toll for Live8Philly?

Sounds like the perfect thing for British betting parlors...except I think they specifically exclude things like death as a basis for wagering.

The way things are looking in europe, bands may have to actually *gasp* pay to be a part of Live8.

Hopefully they'll just cancel the damn thing so I don't have to see the incessant articles in my news.

Pay, schmay...as long as I get to see Pink Floyd.

yeah, man.

Riots at the symphony ? AHAHAHAHA! That's good....I like that.
