"Two guitars of Sergie Loobkoff - Samiam's guitarist - have been stolen in Trier/Germany on tuesday while the band was bringing their stuff to the venue. Presumably two guys who pretended to be stagehands took the guitars and disappeared with them. Sergie wants to have his guitars back, not only because of financial matters - lots of memories are combined with these guitars since almost every Samiam and Solea songs have been created on these instruments. The guitars are:
- Gibson SG, 1986, color: burgundy, in a black guitar case with samiam stickers
- Gibson SG, 1976, color: brown, lots of scratches, brown case with Samiam, Solea and Hopeless Records stickers
Anyone who knows anything about the incident or where the guitars are may contact Philipp Styra (p.styra@deag.de), their european tourbooker. Anonymously if you like. Reward is EUR 350.-. The band is in Europe until mid of next week, Sergie would be very pleased to take his guitars back home."
