DPR4444 Posted October 24, 2013 Posted October 24, 2013 terrible news. i've been to the Sportsmens many times, and the owner Duane and staff are very supportive of the musicians they book.. however, the neighborhood around the bar is not the greatest. any idea where the trailer was actually parked? i know there is a police 'traffic' cam at a nearby intersection - perhaps it captured a look at the scumbags that did this.
DPR4444 Posted October 24, 2013 Posted October 24, 2013 i copied the original post to a local music messageboard. hope it helps http://www.wnymusic.com/viewforum.php?f=15
NoSaint Posted October 24, 2013 Posted October 24, 2013 it always amazes me how often i see bands have incidents like this. i guess valuables and cash, plus sketchy neighborhoods, plus often behavior that can be a little reckless and it shouldnt surprise me... its really unfortunate.
Helpmenow Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 Drag racing cars with their trailers get stolen all time
Gugny Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 I saw this on FB this morning. What a sickening feeling. What a bunch of punks. I hope these guys get their gear back.
