AD Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 Always a bad story when this happens2 of The Acorn's drummer's drums were stolen on Tuesday.Tue Sep 25::: drums stolen!Friends. So, it's finally happened. We had some shit stolen yesterday. While we were loading the van at my house yesterday, someone swiped 2 of Malecki's vintage Tom drums from our lawn. It's incredibly worrisome and disheartening considering that we were in and out of the house bringing gear to the van, and shit wasn't left unattended for more than 45 seconds.Anyhoo, if you are strolling about Ottawa's pawn shops or used music stores, please keep your eyes peeled for 2, walnut finished, 1970's Gretsch tom drums. One was a rack tom, the other a large floor tom. fookin'ell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bouche Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 45seconds my ass.I was thinking that same thing but refrained from posting it so I wouldn't read as an asshole. The only way that would be the case is if they were under surveillance. The thieves may have waited for the exact moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Wish Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 "you're weird and mean and we don't like you anymore"Man what prompted that? Theft is theft, it shouldn't matter on the circumstances. I had a bike stolen once that I left for a minute, but it was not the 60 seconds that caused it to go missing, it was the thief.
