(Rock News Desk) Cheap Trick, who narrowly escaped death in a stage collapse last month, have expressed their sympathy for those who were killed in a similar event over the weekend.

Five died and 45 were injured when a freak gust of wind blew down the main stage at the Indiana State Fair on Saturday.

It's the third large-scale incident of the North American festival season, following the Flaming Lips' video wall collapse in Tulsa and Cheap Trick's near-death drama in Ottawa. They say: "We express our sympathies to the victims in Indiana and to all who grieve. There will be a time to address the issue of concert safety � but not today." more on this story
