As reported by BBC News, British band Noah and the Whale recently had all their gear stolen. The theft occurred while their gear was left in a locked trailer in a Manchester car park.

Says understandably upset lead singer Charlie Fink, “None of it’s about the money, it’s genuinely irreplaceable stuff.” He went on to add, “It’s hard to explain the relationship you have with a guitar.”

However, never fear music fans. The band has promised this set-back wont stop the rock, and vows to continue their currently scheduled tour.

If you have any information about the theft, please contact the band via their Myspace or management at 020 8743 1000 .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)
