02: The Miami Showband Massacre

[@trevorthompson7604]

This awful atrocity should never be forgotten

My dad was in the showband circuit. Even playing drums for Van Morrison In 66

The most tragic aspect of the Miami ambush was that the 5 band members, miraculously, actually survived the initial impact of the premature explosion, only to be mercilessly mown down in the murderous rampage that ensued. RIP to these poor unfortunate souls

The Miamia Showband was bringing both People's together in the Dance Halls around the Six Counties, and the Extreme Unionists didn't want to see unity amongst the Ordinary People. There are still those Unionists today who want to keep the People divided.
