SLEEPING BEAUTIES & OTIS ROBBED
Donation protected
Dear friends,
these are very rough times
Saturday morning, 2nd September, we were robbed of all of our equipment, instruments and personal belongings in Goteborg, Sweden, in front of the popular Pustervik venue, right in the center of town, in the worst possible way.
Been used to tour a lot, we always pay attention on night parking, gear and to avoid trouble in every city, but this seems to be a more "organised" robbery, as many bands and artists had to face the same destiny in the same spot.
Unfortunately, police didn't seem very interested in what is clearly goin on.
Both us (Otis Tours independent agency) and american band Sleeping Beauties, wich we're currently working with for their first European Tour, have now to face major losses.
This is a big blow for us.
We're setting this up to save this tour, the next ones, and in particular to help SLEEPING BEAUTIES, that are suffering most of the losses.
Here's the list of stolen gear.
If you can, please keep an eye on these things. They might show up on the internet, or local markets, or music shops. Please pass the word.
- Squier Jaguar bass, black with black headstock
- Fender Stratocaster Guitar (red) with soft case (with "Rubinoos" written on it)
- Pan SG guitar
- Bass chromatic tuner pedal/TU3
- Bass DF2 super feedback and distortion
- Malekko lo fi Ekko analog delay 6/6
- Black stompbox pedal Big Muff Triangle copy
- Yellow, blue and green Boutique Mod chorus and flange pedal
- Small green phaser, vibrato, flange, chorus pedal
- Glass slide for guitar
- 5 packs of Earnie Ball Super Slinky strings
- 2 tweed 15 foot instrument cables
- 5 short pedal cables (2 black, 1 neon green, 2 yellow)
- 1 ten spot power adapter
- 30 .63mm Dunlop picks
- Guitar modes and scales book
- Green Gretsch guitar hardcase with black handle
- TH100 Orange guitar head (twin channel)
- Bottom of Orange freight case
- Cannon 5D ii camera with 50mm lens
- GoPro
- MacBook Pro 15" with felt cover
- Gray Baby
- Earthquaker devices compressor pedal Warden
- Bass case
- 5th drive external
- Rat Proco turbo pedal
- Tuner TC electronic polytune pedal
- Clothes
- 1 red instrument cable
- 1 white instrument cable
- Pearl snare
- 1 Iphone 4 + cover with Radio Birdman logo
The total estimated value of all this gear is (at least) 6400 EU
We're pretty much on the ground right now.
This is a big hit.
But we're trying to keep goin' with the tour.
Every help is very appreciated.
We're a small independent agency, trying to help out independent rock'n'roll bands (just like Sleeping Beauties), and everything we have we bought working hard during the past years
These are the next shows for the Sleeping Beauties Euro Tour 2017
If you can, please attend and support the band.
As you can see, we still have couple day offs/available dates.
If you have a place to stay, or a venue or party to play, that would help a lot aswell
