Help out the mighty SLOW GRIND!!! EQUIPMENT STOLEN!! Hey friends, we've has some pretty fucked up shit happen to us. Last week (between the 14-16 of February), someone jacked all of our amps and drumset from our storage unit in Edinburg, TX!! That would be Jason's Carvin R600 Bass Amp, Leo's Peavey Stereo Chorus 212 200 Watt Guitar Head with built in 362 BBE Sonic Maximizer and Marshall 4x12 1960 Cabinet, JR's Peavey Stereo Chorus 212 200 Watt Guitar Head with built in 362 BBE Sonic Maximizer and Crate 4x12 American Vintage Cabinet, and John's seven piece 97 drumset with all of his cymbals and stands. Bascially, the equipment you guys have seen us jam with for fucking years by now. If you guys find ANY INFORMATION regarding our equipment (you see someone with it, find it at a pawn shop), PLEASE CALL OR E-MAIL US ASAP so that we can take this into our own hands. We already have an investigator digging hard and we've got a lot of good information that's quickly narrowing this down, but anything to speed up the process would be great. You can reach me (Leo) at 956-222-5072 if you know of any info. Thanks a million guys for any help and keep pushing for us to get our babies back!!
Books, art and music make me...well, most of me. Art is a portal through which I have ventured and found solice, through my art and through that of others. Some can say there is not much to me and others will claim there is so much. It just depends on what they were given and what they chose to deny.
This site is mainly used for the purposes of local music, art and entertainment. Below are some other interests of mine.
Kill me again or take me as I am, for I shall not change.
