Someone (September 26, 2006)

fuck i know man, thats crazy. I figured the annoucement was that Goldberg signed to TNA

btw this is sick nick, i cant sign on cause im at school.

mattruin (September 26, 2006)

yeah definately. its just a matter of time before we get that dream match. Samoa Joe v Kurt Angle. Just hope Angle doesn't kill himself trying to prove what we all know. That he's the best North American wrestler out there right now.

k-dubs (September 26, 2006)

itll be scripted, he will win.

Someone (September 26, 2006)

First! For Once! This band deserves it.

Sirens (September 26, 2006)

some day, Little Jerry.

Someone (September 26, 2006)

I don't think any band, no matter how bad their music is, deserves to get robbed. Dick

Archangel (September 26, 2006)

White power bands?

Someone (September 26, 2006)

it was the fat man and his sister from their label. they needed to make money off of this band some how.

Someone (September 26, 2006)

hahahahaahahahahahahahahahaha

Sirens (September 26, 2006)

That blows.

..and Monster Cables are essential, seriously. If youre not playing through a monster, you arint playing at all.

JustLikeDelilah (September 26, 2006)

Do you work at Guitar Center?

sickboi (chris) (September 26, 2006)

That's a lot of broken equipment...

kingofsuck (September 26, 2006)

It was Conor Oberst ripping An Angle off in return.

UncleFunkyPants (September 26, 2006)

Ooo, snap!

best post yet.

Someone (September 26, 2006)

this was not a robbery unless someone used a weapon to take the gear from someone in the band. if they just broke into the trailer, it's called a burglary.

Someone (September 26, 2006)

Touche.

ILOVESCOTT (September 26, 2006)

not exactly. you don't have to have a weapon to commit robbery.

MarkRowan (September 26, 2006)

actually wouldn't that be theft? burglary is breaking in with intent, but not actually doing.

VeniceBeachxc (September 26, 2006)

I'll give you $25 for the lot.

branden (September 26, 2006)

rofl

Someone (September 26, 2006)

one would think that he would take this as a sign...

I-type-poorly (September 26, 2006)

So why is the band profile picture just one person of indeterminate sex?

kingofsuck (September 26, 2006)

Because the band is essentially the project of one person of indeterminate sex.

TheOneTrueBill (September 26, 2006)

It's been awhile since we've seen one of these stories.

Someone (September 26, 2006)

This news makes me very happy

crozilla (September 26, 2006)

Welcome to shitty Sacramento, vehicles (including mine) get broken into at some point. Mine was broken into for a backpack when the douche bag could have taken my I-Pod and my DS which were only in the glove box. Moral of the story, Sacramento sucks I'm moving.

JustLikeDelilah (September 26, 2006)

Move to Fresno.

Someone (September 26, 2006)

Funny, there was no news posting about fans being robbed when they bought their album.

jamespastepunk (September 26, 2006)

Comment of the last couple days. Damn, thanks to this cold medicine, I can't tell today from tomorrow.

bo_aughtry (September 26, 2006)

More inspiration for another whiney album.

Any predictions what the title will be?

TheOneTrueBill (September 26, 2006)

"I'm a queer?"

k-dubs (September 26, 2006)

how about more bands from drive thru get robbed.

Someone (September 26, 2006)

On tour? Aren't they FROM Sacramento?

Someone (September 26, 2006)

This is just karma coming back to a band that has consistently been robbing Bright Eyes since it's inception.

Someone (September 26, 2006)

When i say "whole wheat" you say "bread!"

Someone (September 26, 2006)

Now he knows how conor oberst feels about his stealing his voice.

Someone (September 26, 2006)

Karma: you steal music, you get your shit stolen to.

Someone (September 26, 2006)

this band deserves it. i hope they stop playing music. thatd rule.... TIFS

Someone (October 2, 2006)

Give these guys a break. No matter who you are, it sucks to get your stuff stolen. It's funny how you say An Angle is a Bright Eyesrip-off. Stephanie and Richard reins actually had a chance to sign Bright Eyes and Didnt.

go give these guys a listen at least. They deserve it!
