CANCER BATS’ Van, Trailer, Gear & Merch Stolen In Indiana; GoFundMe Launched

Cancer Bats got robbed of pretty much everything after their show in Indianapolis, IN. Cancer Bats‘ van, trailer, gear and merch were all stolen by some assholes, though the van and trailer have at least been recovered. A statement from Cancer Bats at the time of the incident reads:

“LAST NIGHT AFTER OUR SHOW IN INDIANAPOLIS OUR VAN AND TRAILER WERE STOLEN FROM OUR HOTEL WHILE WE SLEPT, WEVE RECOVERED THE VAN BUT TRAILER AND ALL OUR EQUIPMENT AND MERCHANDISE ARE GONE. WE UNFORTUNATELY HAVE TO CANCEL OUR TONIGHT IN ST LOUIS AT @redflagstlvenue DUE TO THE SMASHED WINDOW AND FUCKED UP IGNITION IN THE VAN. WE WILL POST A LIST OF ALL THE GEAR THAT WE LOST SHORTLY INCASE ANY ONE SPOTS IT BEING SOLD SOMEWHERE IN THE INDIANAPOLIS AREA.”

Cancer Bats later added: All our gear and merch was stolen last night!! It’s a major bummer. We unfortunately have to cancel our show at @redflagstlvenue tonight due to our van being totally fucked by the fucks that robbed us. But we should be back in action for Tuesdays show in Madison Wi!

“We will post pictures and Info about the stolen gear soon. So peeps in the Indiana area please keep an eye out. We had some cool shit!!”

A GoFundMe has since been launched to help out Cancer Bats, considering all the shit they need to keep being a band was stolen. Donate to that here and catch Cancer Bats at their remaining tour dates below.
