The Lucky Stiffs' gear stolen

Contributed by an Anonymous Source. Posted by Justin on Thursday, December 21, 2006 at 6:30 PM (EST)

San Francisco's Lucky Stiffs have had their entire trailers worth of music gear stolen in their hometown. The band is looking for any help possible. Everything has been tagged with the bands name and all equipment logos have been removed. The band leaves on a 70 day tour in 3 weeks so they're looking to recoup this as soon as possible.

The band has set up a donations PayPal account here.

corporatecriminal (December 21, 2006)

If the Hamburglar logo doesn't work, there needs to be some sort of logp specifc to bands getting their shit stolen. A picture of an empty van, or something....

givemeamuseumandillfillit (January 13, 2007)

And every Rx Bandits story still needs a picture of a mall.

While not a huge fan of their tunes, all the guys in this band are incredibly solid and supercool.

Hope things turn around for them.

Its a too bad there is no such thing as a dual or triple rectifier cabinet, just standard rectifier. Guess they'll never find their non-existant gear.

damnitsderek (December 23, 2006)

Where are the grammar police when you really need them?

Someone (December 22, 2006)

I don't think this is the first time that this has happened to this band. I may be mistaken, but I think it's the THIRD!
