Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
Ironically, it's not long since they put the videos up saying how fantastic their new, large touring backpacks are. More stuff in one bag = more to lose in one go, I guess
Anyone who gigs can vouch for how these situations can be hard to control. A forumite lost a couple of Suhrs in this way a few years ago.
I don't know this club, but I did know the area well. It's more than "edgy". There's a guitar shop there, just a few doors down, with an interesting concept: they're also an off-license. :beer:
According to recent press reports, it might even have got worse since I was last there:

Bang that through online translation for the gist and all the keywords that should set alarm bells ringing.
On the plus side, if you're not easily cowed there's great food around there including one of Germany's cheapest all-you-can-eat breakfasts. Just don't take any valuables. Or your hot girlfriend.
I used to think this whole thing was a cheeky but if people want to pay, crack on. I just doubt they would repay the 300+ people who have donated so far.
Did we really need two channels on YouTube mentioning the "appeal" but stressing there is no obligation?
If someone random had just started it who wasn't connected as a nice gesture, that's very different.
The worlds going to hell in a handbasket.
The nhs is up shit creek, police are being cut, animals without homes, elderly without enough to get by etc etc.
But a band loses thousands of pounds or however much of gear and people have given them 7 fucking grand!!
I beg that one day these people with influence over the masses will use their powers for good.
Aye ya ya. Maybe I'm shitty, but what we had here (dosh for the Ross) was truly heroic!
Those guys though (Dorje) have jobs (multiple amazing ones) and their health.
I know they didnt ask per se, but jeez, I wish people would be so generous for what actually matters in this world.
Imagine the world we could live in.
Imagine what could be achieved if no one gave a shit about taking the credit.
So, the other part of me thinks it is awesome, and they really are blessed to have been given so much by the people.
It looks like Rob has been Robbed!

I've done something good and I'm getting recognition for it.
