Local thrashers Shrapnel recently had everything stolen from their trailer outside their apartment in North Austin. The group was set to play a New Year’s Eve show at Redrum, but on Sunday morning of 31st, they found that their trailer had been ripped off for over $15,000 in gear and merch. Fox 7 News reported on the incident last week, and word has been spreading around message boards, but apparently nothing has turned up yet.
Shrapnel was ripped off once before back in June of 2005 and was forced to pick up from scratch with the help of some benefit shows from friends at the Backroom. The group is offering a reward for info and you can contact them through their website or Myspace. Here is a full list of what was stolen with serial numbers:
