There is something so despicable about attacking musicians and their audience. I can't put into words how it makes me feel for those people who were trapped and shot at. All the attacks sicken me; every report of someone escaping and surviving brings me joy.

Doesn't matter who it is - anyone who survives a terror attack no matter what the circumstances deserves our attention. I for one love this band, and I can't believe it happened at their concert. The fact that it makes them musicians and famous ones at that doesn't make them any less human.

The brother of Juilan Dorio, a drummer for the band, spoke with WSB-TV in Atlanta.

"He said they were playing, about six songs into the show, and they heard, before they saw anything, they heard automatic machine gunfire. And it was so loud, it was louder than the band, and they all hit the stage floor. And as they got up to try to evacuate they saw men with machine guns just shooting anything and everything in the venue," Michael Dorio, Juilan Dorio's brother told WSB.

"Fifteen hundred people, Julian said, was about the capacity of the venue. I don't know if it was seated or standing but Julian, the lead singer and some of the crew, there was a door back of the stage that led to a street and they flew out the back door," he said.
