Sparta's Gear Stolen in Texas

[pigyboy]

Creepy Fingers posted this on another forum and asked to spread the word. This is really lame:

Yo

My friend Dave from Eagles Of Death Metal forwarded me this. His friends in the band Sparta got their trailer stolen with all their gear...

Hello friends, friends of friends, friends of friends of friends....

Our trailer was stolen early Saturday, August 27th, from a parking lot next to the Marriott in downtown San Antonio, TX. We lost a substantial amount of gear, some of which is pretty unique, so we area keeping our fingers crossed it'll show up somewhere, someday... can you please pass this email along to anyone you know who tours or buys gear, especially if they live around central Texas. The pawnshops should get the list from the police report, but every little bit helps-
if you see this stuff out there please email or call our studio
