Man Commits Suicide At Swell Season Gig
August 23, 2010
Around 10pm last Thursday, right after the Swell Season played, "When Your Mind's Made Up", a man jumped off the roof and fell to his death about three feed from lead singer Glen Hansard. Glen walked over to the man, not knowing what happened, and then quickly left the stage. A doctor in the audience attempted CPR but was unsuccessful. The band has issued a statement regarding the tragedy: "The band, crew and all involved with them are shocked and saddened by the unfortunate events of last night. Their hearts go out to the victim and his friends and family."
