    DARK MATTER, INTERGALACTIC GAS and AMANDA PALMER

    Thank you ABC Action News for the Helicopter photo of our recovered van and trailer. All gear remains missing.

    Special Crimes tells us it was a coordinated heist involving hotel staff. -that we are the latest in a long list of similar robberies targeting touring bands. 
    Our friends in The Living Things, Mae and Damone all suffered the same fate in the same parking lot. Identical methods. Identical stories as a dozen other bands as well, within the past year. Why weren't they warned? Why weren't we warned? 
    It was a hard blow to our morale. We all did as much national press as we could.. to put a spotlight on the situation and to warn other traveling musicians about organized crime in Philadelphia. 
    It was a dark few days. Greg and i continued on to NYC to drink, and to ponder the nature of the universe which, much like our trailer, and our hearts, felt cold and empty.

    Now, back in Chicago, my spirits have rebounded.. One by one we will replace the vintage guitars and effects and amps.. the show must go on. 

    Thank you to all the fans and Raccoons who rallied for the band. Everyone's love and support means the world to us.
     
    Let's make this upcoming entry the greatest ever... 

    The incredible AMANDA PALMER is still my guestCLICK HERE to leave a question for either of us. Just put "????AMANDA" or "????MAT" in the header of your COMMENT. 

    You have only 3 days left !! Don't drag your feet.
