This from Don Ross:

Brooke Miller and I were victims of a van break-in last night in Montreal. We were on our way home from a really great tour on Canada's east coast and
decided to stop for an hour in Montreal and have some dinner. We were only a short distance from the vehicle and only for a short time, but it was evidently enough time for thieves to break into the van and steal many valuable things. Please keep an eye out for these
items. The guitars that were stolen are custom instruments and difficult to pawn off, but they may show up on eBay or other online auction sites. We will offer a reward for the return of anything we've lost, no questions asked.

Please forward this information to any online forums that may prove helpful. Thanks.

Here's the list:

*GUITAR: Michael Greenfield custom G2 steel-string acoustic guitar, serial number 093, belonging to Brooke Miller. Spruce top, rosewood back and sides.
Lower case "g" on the headstock. Beveled armrest, no cutaway. K&K mic/pickup system installed (microphone visible in soundhole). Was in white Calton case with a small
plaque inscribed: "Greenfield Guitars, Montreal, Canada. 514-499-1352."
>
> *GUITAR: Marc Beneteau custom long-scale steel-string acoustic
guitar, serial number 130105, belonging to Don Ross. Spruce top, cocobolo back and sides. Upper case "B" on the headstock. Beveled armrest, no cutaway. K&K mic/pickup
system installed (microphone visible in soundhole). Was in black soft gig bag
with "Ring Music, Toronto"
printed on the side.

*COMPUTER: Apple Macintosh 15" PowerBook G4. Serial number
W8548NESSWZ, belonging
to Don Ross. Silver colour. 1.67 GHz model.
*STAGE GEAR: Countryman E6 wireless headset microphone, beige
colour. Sennheiser wireless transmitter & receiver units.

*IPOD: Apple 20 GB iPod, while colour. Inscribed on back: "To Don & Brooke. Many years of happiness together." (or something close to that!).

If you have information about these items, please contact Don Ross or Brooke Miller. Our voice mail is 416.520.0092. You can also
contact the Montreal Police, Station 37 at 514.280.0637.

Thanks, everyone!

It's always so incredibly sad to hear of such incidents. I truly sympathize for the owners.

It also just makes me sooooo angry at the thieves who do this stuff...I have absolutely nothing but contempt for them, their actions and their kind!

I hope they get caught and end up as "girlfriends" for some 300+lb. angry dudes in prison!
