NOAH & THE WHALE TOUR EQUIPMENT STOLEN

British folk rockers NOAH AND THE WHALE are calling on fans to help track down equipment stolen following their gigs in Manchester, England.
The Five Years Time group awoke on Wednesday (30Sep09) to find that thieves had made off with a trailer containing all their instruments from a hotel car park.
Every piece of equipment the band used on the road was stolen, and the rockers are asking followers to keep on the lookout for any of the items on auction websites eBay and Gumtree.
And frontman Charlie Fink is fuming that people could be so mean-spirited, especially as they have been trying to fulfil their touring duties on a budget.
He tells NME.com, "The thing is, we've been doing this tour... it's been f**king hard, because we've been doing it on the cheap, lifting our own gear and carrying everything ourselves. And this just feels so unbelievably unfair. But we've just got to get on with it now."
The quartet insists it will carry on with the rest of the U.K. trek.
