Stooges Gear Stolen in Montreal!

Horrible shit: a truckful of the Stooges' gear was ripped off in Montreal. I don't imagine that anyone who reads this blog is connected to the criminal underground of Quebec, but just on the off chance, could they spread the word that the Stooges - cultural icons, sweet people, and NOT in the upper ranks of rock'n'roll moneymakers - really aren't people one should go rippin' off? Go steal Nickelback's gear, or somethin' - some band that pollutes the cultural environment with prefab/cashgrab hits - not a band nearly everyone loves...

One variant of the mass mail going around, if you haven't read it, is as follows:
