SUGARLAND DEPOSITIONS

Right now Jennifer Nettles and Kristian Bush are giving depositions about the stage collapse at the Indiana State Fair last year (that footage still takes my breath away).  The collapse, caused by high winds moments before Sugarland were set to take the stage, killed seven, and injured dozens.


Jennifer and Kristian have issued the following statement:


"In all the back-and-forth between the lawyers, the suggestion's been made that we've somehow been trying to avoid having to answer questions about last summer's terrible tragedy. This is simply not true. There is no one who wants to get to the bottom of what happened more than we do, which is why we're ready, willing, and able to give these depositions today and tomorrow. The judge has put limits on what can be discussed, but within those limits, we intend to be as honest and open as we can. We want all the facts to come out, not only for the sake of all the victims and their loved ones, but also so we can make sure that nothing like this ever happens again."
