Canadian band Preoccupations have had a seriously bad week, having been robbed twice...yikes! First in Vancouver and then in San Francisco, waking up Tuesday (5/15) "to find our beloved old van, our trailer, and all of our gear and merch stolen. This is the second time this week we were robbed... We had just re-bought a lot of our gear and continued on the road again, when we got hit a second time — this time losing almost everything." The band have set up a GoFundMe to help buy new equipment and stay on tour. They wrote about it on their Facebook:

Yesterday was a really tough one, basically everything we own and have worked towards was taken from us.

Right as we were hitting our stride, making best friends in the world with Moaning and together really crushing these shows. It was the second time in a week we were robbed, violated and sent into a frenzy of last min running around trying to replace our gear with whatever we could find/afford before the show. As it sunk in yesterday, the time line and logistics, as well as financially it seemed literally impossible for us to continue this run.

HOWEVER as devastating as it was it didn't take long for the support of our amazing friends and fans to kick in. That itself was also overwhelming but really just made it clear that this is just a set back. Flegel has the P Bass. He was spooning it in the hotel room and now keeps it handcuffed to his right wrist.

We have come to L.A. in an attempt to blow the roof off The Echo with the help of friends and Moaning and sharing gear. The rest of the tour is still feeling up in the air, we are taking each day in stride but want to publicly announce a go fund me has been set up in response to so many amazing people offering donations we love you already and will forever. Annnnd the bounty is indeed and very much so forever gnar.
