Shadows Fall played Raleigh, NC, on June 25 as a part of their summer tour. While the group was up on stage doing their thing, two fans tried to rob their merchandise twice. The band said guitarist Matt Bachand leapt off stage to try and stop the guys along with members of the crowd, but they got away… and somehow someone got their license plates.
"Last night we had a great show in Raleigh EXCEPT for the idiot who was nice enough to try steal our merch TWICE off our table as we played (tough to watch the merch when we are all on stage since we're the guys who sell it on this run)…..so anyways our man Mikey leaped off stage and half the crowd gave chase too but unfortunately him and his buddy got away in a red Toyota/honda compact car with the license plate CFP4362 NC – so thanks to our fans who actually came to our aid to try to get this loser (you call yourself a "fan"?) – karma will get you for sure!!"
How shitty must it have been for fans and the band to have a song interrupted because the guitarist had to bolt and try to stop shitty thieves? Also, how ballsy must these fans have been if they tried to rob the band twice? The band said it best- karma's gonna get 'em. The PRP reports nothing was stolen from the band.
