It looks like we, the worldwide media and the fans, were worrying too much about the stoles Stooges gear. Iggy himself seems to be pretty cool about the whole issue. Richard from ShoVine showed us this video, what he did last night after the Stooges gig in Toronto. Iggy Pop exits Massey Hall, Toronto and meets with fans and autograph
collectors. Iggy is asked about the recent theft of the Stoogies’ gear
in Montreal – "It’s us that play the music. Not the sticks of wood. " Hahahaha, how right is he! THX Richard for pointing out this! We are much more relaxed now, like Iggy himself.
The stolen truck that contained Iggy Pop’s equipment has been recovered in Canada, but all the equipment is missing.
Montreal police found the truck Tuesday afternoon, and reported that practically everything had been taken from the vehicle, apart from a few mike stands.
The truck contained over $20,000 worth of equipment, much of which is marked with serial numbers, which could make it harder to sell.
Police are checking the truck for fingerprints and seeking possible witnesses in the theft.{via NME]
