Vanna Trailer Stolen
Vanna's trailer was stolen earlier today. The trailer included guitar cabs, bass cabs, drums, and an extensive amount of merchandise.To raise money for a new trailer the band have released a limited edition t-shirt, which can be purchased here.
Vocalist Davey Muise made the following comment:
"“If it wasn’t bad enough that we weren’t eating well while recording, having our gear and our trailer stolen while recording the record was icing on-the-nonexistent-cake. We are very bummed out, but did not let it affect the way we recorded the album. We created this special shirt in hopes that we can raise enough to get a new trailer. We are hoping people will help by buying the shirt."

Birmingham band Blakfish have had some equipment stolen recently in Nottingham. The band posted the following blog:"FUCKING THIEVES
We were very unfortunately robbed in Nottingham after playing a charity event, fucking ironic or what?! The show was great and we all had an awesome night, but 2 of our guitars, loads of our pedals and a head was stolen from Rich's car. We are unfortunately in a really shit position now as we are saving to record our debut album in January, but with this happening we're back at square one. If you are a loving and kind person it would be amazing if you donated a few pennies to help us get back on our feet. We will be playing a few fund raising events in Leeds, Birmingham and London so if you're able to you should come along as we will be holding raffles and all sorts of competitions.
On an other note if you live in Nottingham or are visiting any time soon next time you are walking in or around town and you pass a cash converters or a pawn shop if you have time it would be really cool if you just popped in and checked if any of the gear we've had stolen is in there. The 2 guitars that were took were a blue Ibanez Jet King, with no serial number on the back and a Red Yamaha Pacifica. There was also a whole array of Boss Pedals and a Marshall AVT 50H amplifier head. Any help is greatly, greatly appreciated and we will reward them being returned in whatever way we can. Please keep an eye out as we are really fucked at the moment."

A Rocket To The Moon's Van Is Broken Into
Recent Fueled By Ramen signing A Rocket To The Moon have had their van broken into and lost $4,000 of equipment. Nick from the band posted a blog saying:"The other day we stayed at a friends house in SLC I woke up and went outside to our van wich was parked right infront of the house to find the drivers side window smashed open with glass everywhere. I got into the van to find out that whoever did it got away with our GPS, My backpack that had my Canon XTi Digital Camera, Canon Flash and Lenses, Our Tour Managers iPod, My Bose Headphones and most importantly they got off with our Cash Box that we accidentally left in the van that night under a bench. All together we lost roughly 4 thousand dollars worth of stuff (including cash). We are doing our best to get around now and trying to forget it had ever happened. But if you guys are feeling generous and want to help us out, I set up a Pay Pal Donation page you an access by clicking the Donate button."
