“Several people hid in our dressing room, and the killers were able to get in and killed every one of them, except for a kid who was hiding under my leather jacket,” Hughes recalled. “People were playing dead, and they were so scared. A great reason why so many people were killed was because so many people wouldn’t leave their friends. So many people put themselves in front of people.”
The interview will premiere next week on Vice.com
