Via the one and only Rick O’Shea, (who by the way has been told to shut up on air by his bosses – more on this later), comes the news that Fred have had their gear nicked.
I’ve heard Fred a few times. They’ve played The Stables for RAG Week and they are better than good. I have a copy of their album and it’s one of those albums that never fails to cheer me up.
Without their gear they can’t gig. This is a professional band who make their living from gigging. I hope the thieving bastards who are responsible get everything they deserve.
If you deal in second-hand music gear, please keep an eye out for Fred’s gear. There’s a list on Fred’s MySpace page.
