Die Polizei nahm mittlerweile drei Männer einer Baufirma wegen des Verdachts auf fahrlässige Tötung fest. Wie die Behörden mitteilten, besteht zudem die Annahme, dass für die Arbeiten verwendete Materialien möglicherweise nicht den Brandschutzvorschriften entsprochen haben.Hongkongs Regierungschef John Lee ordnete derweil an, alle Gebäude in der chinesischen Sonderverwaltungsregion, die derzeit großflächig renoviert werden, zu überprüfen. Gegen die traditionell im Bau verwendeten Bambusgerüste gab es immer wieder Bedenken hinsichtlich der Brandschutzsicherheit..(jow//jve/AFP/dpa)

“SIXTEEN TONS” SOLD OVER 4 MILLION COPIES IN JUST WEEKS — AND THE MAN WHO MADE IT FAMOUS LEARNED IT FROM A COAL MINER’S SON. Tennessee Ernie Ford didn’t just sing this song. He lived every word of it. Written by Merle Travis — whose own father broke his back in Kentucky coal mines — “Sixteen Tons” carried the weight of real sweat, real debt, and real pain. Then in 1977, something remarkable happened. Travis and Ford finally shared the same stage. Two voices. One deep as the earth, the other warm as firelight. When Ford snapped his fingers and sang “another day older and deeper in debt,” the entire auditorium fell silent. It wasn’t a performance. It was a confession — from every working man who ever sold his body but refused to sell his soul. 70 years later, that snap still echoes. And if you listen closely, you might understand why millions couldn’t stop playing this song… and still can’t.

“IF I CAN JUST GET OFF OF THAT L.A. FREEWAY WITHOUT GETTING KILLED OR CAUGHT” — JERRY JEFF WALKER SANG THOSE WORDS AT FARM AID 1986, AND 40,000 FANS FELT IT IN THEIR BONES. On a warm July afternoon, Jerry Jeff Walker stepped onto that stage with the easy grin of a man who’d seen every highway in America. But before he played a single note, he did something unexpected — he mentioned his son Clark, home sick, unable to be there. That small, quiet moment changed everything. When “L.A. Freeway” began, it wasn’t just a song anymore. It was a confession. His voice carried the kind of defiance that doesn’t shout — it just lingers in your chest long after the last chord fades. 40,000 people stood under that open sky, and for a few minutes, every single one of them believed in the same simple dream — getting free. What Jerry Jeff Walker whispered to the crowd right after that final note still gives longtime fans chills to this day…

But when Kris passed at 88, Willie knew he had to come back — for him.He told the crowd about the first time they met in Nashville, two broke songwriters sharing a bottle and a dream.
