The disasters Feb. 17 [2003] at the Chicago dance club E2, where 21 people died, and Feb. 20 at the West Warwick, R.I., rock venue The Station, where 96 perished, have sent a shudder through the music industry, and prompted an instant reassessment among promoters, club owners and safety officials about how they go about the business of staging live entertainment."
