The bassist & road manager are confirmed dead, the others are missing. I'm sure many of the dead had to be in the audience, too. Tragic.

His Instagram post is heartbreaking.

There was a little boy running around that looked to be about 5 years old. About 30 seconds before the wave, he climbed onto (I'm assuming) his father's lap. I hope that saved his life. Watching that innocent little boy running around was utterly heartbreaking.

but from an underwater landslide from a volcanic eruption. Why does this happen at this time of year? The last huge one happened on the day after Christmas.
