Drummer GENE HOGLAN Has Gear Stolen in Chile By Larry Petro, News Monkey Wednesday, May 2, 2012 @ 6:56 PM
Gene has released the following statement:
Hey everybody,
It was also great to hang out (albeit briefly) with my bro's in
Forbidden, Anthrax (who were on FIRE, btw!), Kreator, Destruction,
Obituary, Exodus, and Fear Factory. I wish I could have stayed the next
day to see what the ragers would have done for Exodus. 'Toxic Waltz'?
'Toxic Death Sprint of the Apocalypse' is more like it.
I do have some maddeningly sad news to report, however. Somewhere at the
venue, The Movistar Arena, my gear bag was stolen, containing my two
Alesis DM5's, my triggers, my stickbag, my in-ears, my leg weights, but
most importantly, my BOOTS. The same boots I've played and recorded in for almost the last decade. Sentimentality aside, they don't make these boots anymore, as the company who makes them, Boodaz, went out of business around the time I got them. Or else I would just be forced to go out and pick up another pair of size 13 Flameboots. Since I can't do that, I am going to appeal to you directly, my Chilean friends. If for whatever reason you were to gain knowledge of the whereabouts of my bag (or the bag itself), especially my boots, could I ask you to contact me in care of Rob Shallcross, my manager, at [email protected].
Those
boots mean an awful lot to me, and you would have me as friend for life
if you would find a way to have them returned to me. Y'see, though the
contents of my gear bag can be replaced (at QUITE a cost to me
personally), the boots can't. So of course, I'd love for the entire gear
bag to be returned to me, but I would REALLY appreciate it if at least
the boots were. I wouldn't be able to thank you enough, my Chilean
friends.
Thank you so much,
Ps. I had to play in tennis shoes for the first time in 17 years this
weekend. They might as well have been ballet slippers. Okay, I'm gonna
stop sniveling about it now. Thanks for listening, my friends. \,,/!
