Meinem Freund und Kollegen Markus Reuter ist das schlimmste anzunehmende Unglück widerfahren: Auf einer Tour in Chile sind den Stick Men alle Instrumente und Besitztümer gestohlen worden. Da ich davon ausgehe, daß Markus als professioneller, tourender Musiker seine Instrumente versichert hat, dürfte der materielle Schaden ersetzbar sein. Unermeßlich schlimmer dürfte der immaterielle Schaden sein:
Hi everyone, keeping it as short as possible: I’m writing to share a difficult update regarding our recent travels in Chile. Unfortunately, we (Stick Men) were victims of an organized theft where much of our gear and personal items were stolen from our suitcases while in the custody of the airline.
“The loss is significant. While I still have my primary instrument, we lost essential equipment, most notably including two of our Quad Cortex units and Pat‘s sample pad. More devastatingly, three of my hard drives were taken, containing dozens of music projects, archival data, and over 300 unreleased concert recordings from the last decade. On a personal level, these drives also held the only complete archive of photos and videos of my daughter since she was born.
While we are not asking for direct donations, many of you have asked how you can help. If you would like to support the band during this time, the most effective way is to visit our Bandcamp pages and purchase digital downloads. Supporting our digital catalog helps us recover from the severe financial and emotional blow of this loss as we continue our tour next week.
“And if any of our Chilean friends hear of our equipment and personal items being traded, we’re very interested in recovering what was stolen from us, and we offer a reward for that.
“Despite this setback, we will be back on the road next week and look forward to seeing many of you at the upcoming shows. Thank you for your ongoing support and for standing by us.”

Ich drücke die Daumen, daß sich wertlosen (vom Wiederverkaufswert her betrachtet) Festplatten wiederfinden und nicht einfach in der nächsten Mülltonne entsorgt worden sind.
Das ist der Grund, weshalb ich nicht mehr live auftrete.
