Misc - Other Truck robbery in Kent Washington

Yeah, the band gear theft stories are insane, and infuriating. Even when they back them up to a wall so the doors are blocked people have cut through the sides. Shit, some of the Brian Jonestown Massacre's guitar were found in a homeless camp down here years ago.

Local Atlanta band (Yacht Rock Revue) got a big break a couple of years ago, picked up to open for Kenny Loggins on his farewell tour. First date, in Dallas, their equipment truck got stolen from the hotel parking lot. Thieves had scanners and threw out all the AirTags they'd stowed in the cases. Tens of thousands of dollars worth of gear, including irreplacable custom instruments. I don't think they ever recovered any of it, other than a few pieces of a saxophone they found on the side of the road trying to back-trace the AirTags.
