Archelon Robbed In Hamilton
Donation protected
Hello everyone, my name is Joanne, my husband is Keith Zwicker, the drummer for Sudbury Ontario heavy metal band Archelon.
Yesterday, October 28th, after Archelon played a show in Hamilton Ont, we checked out of our hotel and went to the hotel's parking lot...
between 3 am and 10 am in the morning some one decided to break into my SUV by smashing in the drivers side window and stealing alot of the contents.
All of the gear was covered and not in view, how this individual knew anything was even in the vehicle is baffling!
Taken was an IPhone from our center console also a ZOOM Q3HD camera as well as our guitar players beloved, very rare guitar.
The guitar stolen is a Dean Razorback/Slimebolt with James Hetfield signature pickups installed.
Cost of items stolen including the repairs to our vehicle
is around $3500.
This to some one else might not seem like a lot of money but they are not a signed band and work hard to travel and play for as many people as they can.
They are currently recording their second album and have a gig opening for Nuclear Blast band Wednesday 13 on November 13.
I have set the campaign goal at $4000 if we can
reach the goal any money left over from replacing the stolen items will be used to help us get our new cd mixed and mastered.
A report was filed with Hamilton Police within minutes of us finding our vehicle robbed and we are hopeful that some how at the least the guitar will be found and returned.
From myself and all of the members of Archelon that our making our posts go viral on facebook we say thank you for all your help.
You are the reason that they do what they do.
Thank You to everyone for your support and any information that leads to the recovery of this guitar is beyond appreciated.
