Tragedy struck Big Wheel Recreation band The Cancer Conspiracy over the weekend -- as the band stayed overnight in Queens, NY, returning from SXSW, their van was stolen, containing ALL their equipment and merchandise. This is a crushing blow to any band. Their list of stolen items are below, if you know the whereabouts of any of it please contact the band. Another good way to support the band would be to pick up a copy of their BWR album "The Audio Medium." You can even hear the whole thing on their webpage beforehand if you'd like.
