So., 17.06.2012 - 09:35 Uhr
Erneut gibt es schlechte Nachrichten für die Progressive Metal-Band ANIMALS AS LEADERS aus Washington D.C.:
Bei der Rückkehr von der aktuellen Tour fand man den Bandraum ausgeraubt. Dem Verbrechen zum Opfer fiel allerhand Equipment (u.a. 10 Gitarren, Verstärker und PA) sowie der Chevy Blazer von Gitarrist Javier Reyes.
Hier das Statement von ANIMALS AS LEADERS:
Hey guys. We've got some pretty terrible news to report. Upon returning home to our house in LA we discovered that we'd been robbed while were out on tour. The thieves were able to get away with Javier's Chevy Blazer and all of the equipment we didn't have on tour with us. 10 guitars in total. This includes many of our one of a kind custom instruments (Stranberg,Rick Toone ) as well as amplifiers, PA equipment and personal items. This is beyond devastating. We know so many of you have been beyond supportive with Javier's legal troubles. We may need more of your help now to potentially find some of these one of a kind instruments that may pop up on Ebay, Craigslist, pawn shops, used music stores etc. We're adding an album containing photos and detailed descriptions of the stolen gear to our profile. Please take a look and keep your eyes open for anything that looks close to this stuff. I truly think that with your help we have an exponentially better chance of tracking some of this down.
Thanks, Tosin, Javier
UPDATE 20.06.12: Das Auto wurde mittlerweile gefunden und auch eine Gitarre konnte "gerettet" werden. Die Band schreibt in einer aktuellen Meldung: Thanks, Tosin, Javier
"We've actually got some good news to report! The LAPD successfully recovered Javier's car. The even better news is that one of the stolen guitars was in the back seat! I'm now reunited with Strandberg #17. We want to commend the LAPD for their ability to find the stolen vehicle within 24 hours of receiving the police report. Hopefully this is the key to finding the rest of the guitars! Something still may pop up online so please keep your eyes open. Thanks for all of the support."
