Cephalic Carnage Robbed 2007-11-25 by Athom EMERITUS | 13 Comments | Statement from the band on their recent misfortune:
“While CEPHALIC CARNAGE were getting their van repaired in Tulsa, OK on Tuesday, November 20, 2007, we were robbed.
“A backpack containing the recent earnings from the tour (close to $4000.00), a laptop computer with over $2000.00 in music software programs loaded, an iPod and various personal items were among the items stolen. We immediately called the police and suspected that an employee grabbed the backpack in the process of getting the work done.
“The police came and took a written statement. The authorities suspected that it was an inside job as well but could not prove anything at that point. It is still under investigation but as of yet they still have not recovered the property or money.
“This could not have come as at a worst time as we were looking to use earnings from this tour to help cover the upcoming holiday expenses for our kids and families. As you might expect we are extremely upset as this tour was doing very well for us (both financially and morale wise).
“Despite this major setback the band is still continuing on with the DYING FETUS tour until the end. Our hopes are that we will be able to break even on this tour and not have to reach into our pockets to cover travel expenses, merch costs etc. We are looking for any type of assistance from our fans to help us through this difficult scenario.
“Any donation of any amount will be absolutely appreciated. If you cannot do anything at this time then please try to make it out to our remaining shows on this tour and support us that way.
“In spite of everything we are having a great time with DYING FETUS and the crowd support and response that we have been getting on each and every show has been astounding.”

People that feel the need to steal from others are real pieces of shit. At christmas no less. Those low lifes responsible for this deserve to die.
| | | I hate hearing stories like this. Hopefully they find the money/ laptop. I hope the crooks get what they deserve, castration.
| | | That's horrible. I really hope they get their stuff back.
| | | I saw them play when they came here, bunch of real nice guys. We should do what they do in Dhubai: if thiefs are caught they get their hand chopped off. I'm not surprised that crime in Dhubai is one of the lowest in the world.
| | | The policy here is just a slap to the wrist, and way too lenient for my taste. Yeah, I do hope they get their stuff back, and I hope Danzig got a piece of those who jacked him. People....
| | | wow, that really sucks alot...
| | | At least he didn't lift their equipment. That would've been really fucked up.

Sucks, these guys are amazing.
| | | Wow that sucks, I live in Tulsa
| | | this sucks for these guys, but isn't it pretty much standard practice to remove any valuable shit from your vehicle before taking it for repairs? it's bad enough hearing this sorta thing from so many bands, but the amount that leave unlocked vehicles unnattended or make dumb mistakes like this is shocking.
| | | if we must rob, why must we rob bands like CC?
jesus christ man, rob Panic! at the Disco or something, but not these hard working guys.
| | | yeah i've never heard this band but i highly doubt they deserve something like this.
| | | If P!ATD had been robbed, I would have just laughed.
But this really sucks. Hope they recover at least or better, get the stuff back.
