Dinosaur Jr. GEAR STOLEN
 

[sorry ... please see other threads]

3 threads were SOOOO necessary for this.

That sucks I hope those bastards go to hell.

I'll bet it was the same guys that stole Sonic Youth's gear

It happened in Brooklyn after their show on the 29th...

i'll list some gear specifics not much in the way of amps or effects and i know J has some rare, modded and boutique effects:

And this list of the gear, and more info, is circulating via email....
"Attached and listed below is a list of gear that was stolen out of the Dinosaur Jr trailer last night (Tuesday 8.29.06) outside of their hotel in Long Island City, NY. We would appreciate spreading the word and passing this list around in hopes of recovering their gear. Please notify and alert your local guitar shops, pawn shops, music and web stores etc. to keep an eye out for this gear. Feel free to send this list to any and all band, tour and production managers, guitar freaks, touring personnel, venues, musicians and or thieves that you think could help us."

The 1961 Jazzmaster (SN 62012) I'm pretty sure was J's main live guitar. I've seen him in 2 shows, & that's the guitar he would use the most.



Whoever did this...

ROT IN HELL ASS-HOLES!

the band is gonna have to shill out a pretty penny or two to get some new gear.

Gear Jacked
 

Didn't Jon Spencer, Frank Black and Sonic Youth all get thier gear jacked?
Thats messed up big time.
I read that when Sonic Youth got thier gear ripped, they took the whole Ryder rental truck!!!!
Any leads on the crimininal investigations??
Didn't SY get it back?

no, they havent. i believe they have found one gtr... (SY) but nothing else.

i hope they didnt take his 1st guitar.

No, they've got three back now.

What's a lock of Cobain's hair gofer nowadays?

50,000 dollars roughly.

^ probably more.
