Following the terrifying collapse of their stage at the Indiana State Fair minutes before the band was about to take the stage, it was hard to imagine that Sugarland would ever play again. Seven people died on that tragic day and over 40 people were injured. Despite lawsuits being filed by families of fans who died in the accident, Sugarland is putting together a collapse benefit concert to raise funds for victims of the tragedy. The benefit concert will take place on October 28th, 2011 at the Conseco Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. Tickets to see Sugarland in concert are available now.
