The band manager who said he could never forgive himself for sparking a nightclub fire that killed 100 people is preparing for a fresh start away from Rhode Island upon his release from prison on Wednesday (March 19th).

Daniel Biechele, who set off pyrotechnics as tour manager for the rock band GREAT WHITE that ignited one of the nation's deadliest nightclub fires, will serve out the final two years of his sentence on parole in his home state of Florida while living with the high school sweetheart he wed just weeks before reporting to prison.

"I actually feel sorry for him because that's something he has to carry - that burden - for the rest of his life," said James Gahan, whose 21-year-old son, Jimmy, died in the fire.

Biechele, 31, will be released from the state prison after serving less than half of his four-year prison sentence. He will live with his wife Mandy in a three-bedroom, one-and-a-half bath home in Casselbery, Fla., in suburban Orlando, said JoEllyn Rackleff, a spokeswoman for the Florida Department of Corrections.

He will be required to stay out of trouble and meet with his parole officer once a month, she said. He will have to check in with the officer within 48 hours of arriving in Florida.

Biechele has been in minimum security at the Adult Correctional Institutions since May 2006 for his role in the Feb. 20, 2003, fire at The Station nightclub, which began when sparks from the pyrotechnics he set off at the start a Great White concert ignited flammable soundproofing foam around the stage of the West Warwick roadside club. Besides the 100 killed, more than 200 others were injured.
