AC/DC's Fatal Salt Lake Tragedy
. 12 years earlier in 1979, 11 people were crushed and trampled to death at The Who's concert in Cincinnati. After that horrible tragedy, many venues banned festival style seating. History, however, would repeat itself this night in Salt Lake City as the crowd surged, and those in the front fell down, pushed by the heaving weight of bodies behind them. Three fans, Jimmie Boyd Jr., 14, Curtis White Child, 14, and Elizabeth Glausi, 19, were killed. 15 years later, Cathy Free spoke to some fans who were at that AC/DC show in Salt Lake City about their memories of the terrible events on January 18 for People magazine. read more here Gibson.com is an official news provider for the Day in Rock.
