This is nuts, although, the people that try to steal these steal them when you would never expect it. My band was in Chicago playing a show 2 years ago when we went to a grimier part of chicago after a show to a Dennys to eat. After that a friend happened to be at the nice side of Chicago in an Embassy Suites and let us sneak in to sleep there. In the morning, we come out to the doors wide open on the van. When I walked up I saw they tried to cut this new trailer lock (I seriously bought 2 nights earlier haha) on the trailer, then I saw they tried to pry the trailer doors open and failed.
I walked to look in the van since the locks were punched in the doors and they were all wide open and everything was scattered everywhere; clothes, food, the GPS, cds, dvds, ipods, oh and our merch money box full of our cash haha and a bunch of electrical wires were hanging under the steering wheel and dash.
Apparently that $5 trailer lock had not only saved the trailer, but bought enough time with them messing with it to spook them from taking it all! The hotel had security cameras but they refused to let us have them for some reason. Thank God for it though cause we would’ve called it quits right there. I now also bought not just a trailer lock, but also a hitch lock.
I will keep these guys in prayer, we just talked to the Overseer guys at Sonshine and its so bogus to have it happen.
