I hate how this is becoming some kind of popular and easy way to make money for thieves. It's sickening, really.

This shit can and does happen in any given city, don't single one place out. Either way, that's a bummer for BTF.

Thank you, I cannot begin to explain how irritating it is to live in the St. Louis area and hear people shit on St. Louis like it's Sodom and Gomorrah. It's not the best city but fuck, there are far worse cities in this country than St. Louis.

pack pack? i remember my first capri sun

good thing their talent wasn't stolen...oh wait......

Someone broke into their van, they didn't hold him up. Not robbery. Still, that's terrible and I hate that this is happening to so many bands.

THIS. People reporting news should know the difference.

East Saint Louis is a shitty area, it's not even in Missouri. The town they got robbed in was Sauget Illinois. Right across the river. It's a crime rittled slum.

Since they played The Firebird, I'm assuming they went over there to hit the strip club?

Its a large city just like any other, and crime happens. Their biggest mistake is going to Dennys. Uncle Bill's Pancake House or Courtesy Dinner would have been one of my choices.

It never said their entire livelihood was in the van. They just said that everything in their van was stolen.
