The Stooges are robbed; appeal for information
Mike_Diver by Mike Diver August 5th, 2008

A hire van containing plenty of equipment and instruments belonging to The Stooges was stolen from outside a hotel in Quebec yesterday.

Among the items now missing is Mike Watt's bass guitar - pictured - a Red Gibson 1963 EB-3 bass with no serial number. Also gone: a Reverend Flying V guitar in volcano black, a Marshall Vintage/Modern Amplifier, a Reverend Orange guitar and lots of cabinets and leads.

The van was parked outside the Embassy Suites Hotel, at 208 Saint Antoine Ouest, Montreal. The van - a Penske 15-foot yellow truck, license AC46493 - went missing between 6.30 and 7.30 am yesterday (August 4).

The full list of stolen equipment is here. If any DiS reader has any information to pass to the band, do contact Eric Fisher here.
