Like the above I'd never heard of her. My teenage daughter had asked (my wife) if she could get tickets for the concert months ago. She didn't get them fortunately.
But this singer must be haunted by that night. I think coming back to Manchester will help her exorcise her own demons to and will play a big part in her recovery.
She may not have physical scars but knowing people died at her concert must be so hard to comprehend.
Think Manchester needs to make her feel special because what ever happens in her life/career her name will be synonymous with the events on May 22.

Think we need to see a lot more Bomb sniffer dogs working in and around big venues, i know i'd feel alot safer than seeing someone with a gun stood nearby...
Maybe the ones slaughtered by that American security company in Kuwait last year could have found a home with our Police force here..

2 weeks ago I'd never heard of this singer and even now I couldn't name a single song she sings
But for a 23 yr old kid, coming back here and doing what she's doing less than 2 weeks later... total respect
Yes total respect for Ms Grande. In a world where pop stars seem so removed from real life this young lady has acted superbly.

The thing is even the sniffer dogs wouldn't have prevented mondays bomb, these people don't need to get into the stadium, last night I worked the Robbie concert, security was very tight, yet after on leaving thousands were quieting for the metrolink or making their way to their cars, all a bomber has to do is wait and get them further out, in fact like the vehicle use, I think this will be SOP for terrorists now.Think we need to see a lot more Bomb sniffer dogs working in and around big venues, i know i'd feel alot safer than seeing someone with a gun stood nearby...

Didn't see that, how desperately sad. Me and the wife watched the ongoing horror of that night andOne of the most heart breaking things was the tweet she put out after the attack. She apologised to everyone and blamed herself for the deaths. I don't know why that affected me so badly but it did.
both of us felt enormous sympathy for this young pop star immediately, (We'd never heard of her but many our age haven't).

Yep. And Jason Manford tweeted his support for her after that statement she put out, only for him to get trolled on Twitter - so much so that he closed his account. Ariana herself was trolled by some nut jobs who have long had a beef with some of her liberal values and it just has me shaking my head in disbelief at why these people engage in such despicable behaviour.

I'm also wondering what sort of reception he got at last night's Robbie Williams gig. I'm also still curious as to what he would've tweeted if the attack happened at an Erasure gig.

What has he said? (just googled him to find out who he was)
