WARNING - THIS WEBSITE CONTAINS GRAPHIC MATERIAL.

On February 20, 2003 music fan Louis Alves attended a concert at the Station Nightclub in West Warwick, Rhode Island. After opening bands Trip and Fathead finished their sets, the glam band Great White took the stage just after 11:00 PM and began performing their opening number, "Desert Moon". During the performance, pyrotechnics set off by tour manager Daniel Biechele ignited the flammable acoustic foam. Within 6 minutes the entire club was engulfed in flames, killing 100 people and injuring 230. Louis Alves was one of those unfortunate souls who did not make it out of the club.
