Unfortunate news from the River City Rebels camp:

Two nights ago, in Spokane, Washington, the River City Rebels were playing a show at a club called Fat Tuesdays. While we were on stage, our truck, trailer, and all of our personal belongings were stolen. The cops have been notified and the case is under investigation. The only things salvaged were our gear that we had onstage, some merch we had at the show, and the clothes on our back. However, even though everything we own has been taken from us, we are continuing on this tour. With the help of Big D and the Kids Table and The Phenomenauts, we'll make it to San Francisco. Then, the plan is to use The Phenomenauts' bus that they have and finish the tour in that.

If you're going to be seeing us on this tour, please help us out. We're really counting on you Rebel Rousers to head up the relief efforts. Burn some of your cd's, bring a little extra money and make a donation, bring some clothes that you think we might look good in, make us some pasta, etc… If a few people in every town could do a little something for us, I think we'll be alright. They can take our truck, they can take anything, but nothing is going to stop us from going to where we need to go. When you aint got nothin', you've got nothin' to lose. Don't worry, we're fine just like glitter and gold!

The Rebels released Hate To Be Loved in 2004. After their tour with Big D and the Phenomenauts, the River City Rebels will head out on the road with the Duane Peters Gunfight, the Weirdos and Civet. Following that tour they'll head out for a set of shows with the Queers, Black Halos and the Bones.
