Nnnnnnnnnnope.

Hopefully the police will find a ton of your stuff! I've seen this happen so many times, and the cops find shit in pawn shops. Thieves are generally not that bright. I really sorry to hear about this! Don't give up hope though!

Sad. I hope you guys get your stuff back.

that has to have taken hours to move out of a van.. or did they take the van too?

So sorry man... Fuck that sucks. Where was the van?

Holy shit, that is terrible. Sorry man, much mojos to you.

Hours? I don't understand this comment.

How do bands ever play shows if it takes hours to load in or out?

Fuck, that's terrible. Check nearby pawn shops and stuff when you can.

well, to break into a van and move all that gear to another van or something wouldn't have been an easy task. would have been easier to take the van i think.

unless it was multiple people involved.

True, but I'm thinkin' that those thieves do know what they're doing. Unfortunately, they did get away with all that gear. Hopefully they'll be caught.

That sucks dude! I'll keep an eye out on the CL.
