has anyone referred this to the philly cops? or is it a big hoax (feels like it)

Wouldn't I be lucky if I were both a band without instruments or equipment, AND a girl who didn't know how to be touched and kissed properly? One stop shopping!!

Hey BV, as a public observer, it is your duty to inform the Philly PD.

Thats so Philly. Who cares if it's stolen gear. The idea of informing the Philly pigs is pretty stupid.... cause nothing will happen. They got better things to do.... if you lived in Philly you would know what I mean. My friend got pulled over once with 1/2 an ounce of weed and was smoking and the cops gave it back. The cop said, "Son, flush it down the toilet when you get home"...... I love Philly

Yeah, and I've known people who've been arrested in Philly for smoking weed in a park with nothing on them. Philly pigs are weird - they're impossible to predict.

that doesn't mean you shouldn't try, assholes. Yes, if you're from philly you know what it's like to deal with stupid cops. But if you're in a band you know how it feels to have instruments stolen. It's not just a machine, some of these items have a fucking history. You can't just buy a new one. (well, ok, you can, for $12,000)...
