hey i got a text earlier from Johnathan from Torche letting me know that a bunch of their gear got nicked in the Chicago area...I'm passing on the info to you guys. Hopefully they get their gear back.

here is the email I just got.

After our Chicago show at the Congress Theater on May 14 between 1:30AM and 4:00AM our van was broken into while parked in front of Goethe Elementary and a bunch of equipment was stolen. Items taken include music equipment, personal items/luggage, band/personal checkbook, cameras, laptop, and passports.
