Static-X und Dope: Equipment im Wert von 200.000 US-Dollar aus Lagerhalle gestohlen

Static-X und Dope teilen sich derzeit scheinbar nicht nur den gleichen Sänger (Jaja, wir wissen – bestätigt ist nichts!), sondern auch die gleiche Lagerhalle. Die beiden Bands, die zuletzt auch zusammen auf Tour waren, haben für ihr Equipment eine in Los Angeles gemietet.

Platinum selling International recording artists STATIC-X have filed a police report with the LAPD, siting that their warehouse space (which is also shared with @DopeTheBand) was recently robbed of nearly 200K worth of touring equipment during the Corona Virus Lockdown. The two bands were advised the two bands to take the story public, in order to help raise awareness with other small business owners and bands alike. There is a form where you can enter an anonymous tip to help the LAPD find those who stole the gear at the LINK in our BIO. “With most of us in locked down, and those who aren’t locked down, wearing masks in public, apparently it’s a great time to be a thief”. says Static-X drummer Ken Jay. The band has released a statement on the robbery. We want to encourage our community to keep a close eye on your property and on your facilities during this unprecedented time. We also ask for our fans to keep an eye out for the stolen items and maybe we can help the police find these people. The band has publicized a list of stolen equipment here, complete with many of the serial numbers. The list includes: Multiple LED video panels, 2 drum kits, 40+ cymbals, various high end audio/video gear, microphones, racks, branded backdrops, etc. “This is tough one to swallow ” says Edsel Dope. “Our bands are small businesses that have developed and refined our touring systems over years. The amount of time and effort that has gone into building out the tech and AV the production alone is hard to quantify. Its a lot of money. We own all of our own gear and have built our touring business through years of hard work and continuous investment back into ourselves.” “In the end, we recognize that there are far worse things happening around the world. We want to send out positive vibes to everyone in this crazy time. Stay safe, protect yourself from ALL the threats, and take care of each other. We will learn from this and take the necessary steps to rebuild during this down time, while allowing ourselves to be a cautionary tale for others. Stay safe and see you soon!" Static-X and Dope

Eine Liste des gestohlenen Materials wurde hier veröffentlicht.

Wir drücken Static-X und Dope die Daumen, dass sie den Schaden erstattet bekommen.

Erst vor kurzem wurden auch The Word Alive auf ihrer laufenden Tour mit Falling In Reverse und Escape The Fate bestohlen.

Falling In Reverse-Frontmann Ronnie Radke sammelte erst am Wochenende Geld, um seinen Kollegen und Freunden einen Teil des Verlusts von etwa 10.000 US-Dollar erstatten zu können.
