Trip Frontman’s Trip For Tea A Life Saver
Trip singer Michael Shapiro shared his story of survival with the Las Vegas Review Journal after the band opened for Great White in Rhode Island nightclub Thursday night, before a fire killed at least 97 and injured 180 more, including some members of Trip. “I saw the beginning of the show from the sound booth, but I was out of tea, so I went to the bus,” he explained, in a move that may have saved his life. “I set the microwave on one minute, and at about 10 seconds into it, I heard some screams. The first thing that came to mind was that there was a fight. I opened the bus door and saw smoke billowing out the front door and saw people running out screaming.” The full story at reviewjournal.com has since been removed.
