I heard that the ceiling was made of STYROFOAM!!! If that is the case, I blame both club owner and the band (I mean lets use some common sense!), I mean if you saw the footage that the one camera guy took, the "pyrotechnics" were basically these wall set torches that blazed about two feet high, right up against the wall, and heating up the ceiling. I'm not surprised one bit that the styrofoam ceiling went up in a blaze so quickly that very few were able to get out before being overcome by the smoke (in the footage I saw the flames hadn't YET hit the ceiling, but thin smoke was accumulating already over the patrons. Once the ceiling caught fire, the smoke got unbelievably thick and dark).
