Dear friends of "Demons" and Gearhead Records At sometime between 4 and 8 AM on Wednesday March 3rd, the van rented for the "Demons" US tour was broken into in front of the Gearhead Office. We are heartbroken as nothing like this has ever happened before, but right now the most important thing is to get the following information out to as many people as possible. Below is a list of items that were stolen from the van. The list of guitars has been sent to all local music stores, and the CD list has been sent to Amoeba, Streetlight, etc. Please feel free to email this list around, the more people who know about this, the better chance we'll have of either hearing something about it, or actually retrieving some of the goods.
