    Tartan terrors ripped off

    Thought this might be of interest:

    Just got this message, regarding the Tartan Terrors:

    Hi Guys I know there is not alot you can do from down there but please forward this to anyone who you think may be able to help us.

    Today at 4:30 we had our suburban and trailers stolen from the Superstore in Grimsby, Ontario. We had just returned from a two week tour in the US. All of our equipment, Instruments, Costumes, and Merchandise as well as our personal belongings were in the truck and trailer. Most importantly our dog was in the burb. Please keep your eye open in teh GTA for anything that resembles Terrors items. The suburban was a beige, with tinted windows ( 2002 ) and a white Haulmark Trailer. Both had PA plates on them.

    Sequel is a Minin Schnauzer short hair, light grey, very friendly with tags. If any one can help please contact us. Or if you see a dude scalping Terrors CDS please let us know.


    Thanks Ian and Meg

    Updated message:

    Thanks Ian and Meg

    Trust me... we'll be on the lookout for anyone selling the instruments or the equipment.

    Our fiddler had his wares stolen not long ago and we were able to "reacquire" them with a little help. Fortunately, Martin instruments have serial numbers!

    I'll pass this along to the other musicians so that they'll be on the lookout for the unique items.

    *In the meantime, everyone scan ebay and other internet sites for "original" Celtic wares*
    Arise. Kill. Eat.

    This really stinks, and right in my backyard too, hopefully they can recover from this.

    The car, the trailer, the equipment, the merchandise - all of those can be replaced. And hopefully the first three were insured.
    Sequel couldn't be replaced, and s/he was recovered. Just something to think about.

    Hope the stolen goods are recovered.
