Around noon today our trailer was stolen in Nashville.. ALL of our gear was in it including my White Falcon and the weathered Orange 6120 Gretsch. Mark lost a red Kind Doublebass Road Kingand a Fender precision electric bass.The band released Pandelirium earlier this year and is on tour with the Reverend Horton Heat.
Jd lost his 59 reissue Bassman and a hi powered tweed twin.
I lost my blonde Fender Supersonic head/ 4 12 cabinet , my 55 watt Germino LV Head , and an Ampeg super rocket 2x12. I had a Fulltone OCD pedal, ibanez tube screamer, boss blues driver and sever boss tuners. The cab and ampeg were in R&R (anvil style cases) spray painted " destroyers" . Ther germino was in an Anvil head case.
Mark's amps were Fender Pro 1200 head and two Fender 8x10 cabinets. His head and tuner were in a white Star Brand road case.
There was also a full double kick Pearl drum kit and tons of merch, cables ect ect.. Ill have all serial numbers later but 95% of this is one of a kind gear.

there should be band organized sting operations across the country, with punishments for capitured thieves devised by each respective band, irregardless of legality of 'bee honey water torture' and 'the nip tweezer maneuver'.

IS it just me or does it seem like, in the past couple months, a ton of really cool bands have gotten ripped off: The arrivals, the legendary shack shakers, the riverboat gamblers,etc, etc;

Isn't it time for market forces to step in? Someone needs to come up with a new way to secure equipment for touring bands. There's obviously a market for this. 8+ Replies

If a scumbag see's a trailer its pretty obvious they will inspect it knowing there is something inside it. Don't leave valuables in a trailer. Fuck I dont even leave my i-pod in my jacket when I go for a piss in uni. | Features
