METZ's gear stolen in California
Toronto’s METZ had their trailer full of all their gear and merch stolen in Santa Clarita, CA which was on the third day of their first tour in two years. The band say, “We’re determined not to cancel any shows and are en route to SF now, but to continue on tour as planned we have to purchase an entire new set of backline, a massive expense on top of the loss we’ve already incurred. We’re struggling to replace some pedals so if you’re in SF (or a city we’re hitting in the next day or two) and can help please DM us and we’ll get you into the show and be forever grateful.” The full list of stolen gear in below.
The band’s management have set up a GoFundMe to help try and recoup losses, if you’d like to help out. Also if you’re in the Santa Clarita area, be on the lookout for their stuff. Again the full list of stolen gear is below.
You can also help by going to see METZ on tour which is a killer triple bill with Preoccupations and FACS. There are two NYC shows, Elsewhere Hall on December 9 and Bowery Ballroom on December 10. All dates are listed below.
We awoke in Santa Clarita, CA this morning to find our trailer, which was full of all our gear and all of our merch, had been stolen. Full list of missing gear in the slides, please be on the lookout!!!
