Warlocks Gear Nicked

Hi everybody, this is not a joke or anything, I came home today to
find my apartment broken into, burglarized and practically destroyed.
Straight out of stalker film.. All my guitars, gear - stolen, my
modular synthesizers stolen- about 7-10k in stuff
- but no DVDs, Records, CDs, or things like computers, wallet, credit
cards or stuff like that- you know easy things to sell / get cash-.
It was all music gear related and unique, 35 year old Vox guitars (4)
gone, Gretsch (1) keyboards and (1 or 2) master reels are missing
(could be just they grabbed this stuff random)
Also they apparently spent some time in here as all my music notes
(10 years worth!), art, just papers, bills, and stuff (seriously its
this crazy) scattered EVERYWHERE/MISSING/STOLEN went through-as if
somebody was looking for something...
So weird and scary!
The police are dealing with it. But Im reaching out to you for help,
if you know anything or saw anything in the (echo park area) - please
let me know. So the authorities have something more to go on.
But- please just the facts, if you know something, saw something,
heard something factual, let me know ASAP, take care and thanks

ouch! i'm totally crushed, what a nightmare. i don't ever want to know what that feels like. i wouldn't know what to do if all of my gear was swiped.
better make a few calls to some friends in l.a. this gear is destined to end up in the second hand shops or on ebay.
why can't this happen to interpol or somebody who can afford it.

from there myspace page...BOBBY FROM THE WARLOCKS GEAR FOUND: THE COPS ARE ON IT!
they found one guitar which may lead to others (but haven't got it yet) they may or may not have a suspect, unbelievable, they put the Vox grand prix on ebay and was found by the rampart division and the fans simultaneously earlier today. I'll make an announcement when I know more, they are dealing with it right now..lets not speculate until we know whats what!....don't not get involved please let the police handle it!
