I wasn't sure if Frank ever recovered his gear that was stolen a few years back, but last week i was rehearsing with my band at this studio/lockout and i saw this:


Sorry about the picture quality, it was with my cell phone at night but i thought someone here might know something about the whole situation. I know the name of the band it belongs to and i'm sure it's possible that frank himself might have gotten rid of some old equipment, but you never know.

It looks like nothing ever happened. the guy who staryted this thread only had 10 posts on here and no more posts for this thread. Never even checked back in with us for updates....
Maybe it's his band that got it.

...And since I'm wrong, the urban plight is not the problem.

i think they'd play the hell out of it. squiers can rock. i got two mim94's none with the above #s though.

*cough* Huh? W-what Tele?! *looks away suspiciously*

...Seriously, though, I don't think Frank, Lyle, Rich or Dave would even contemplate playing a Squire piece a junk like I got! ;D

yep, but not that tele you got stashed under your bed, hey Carl <wink wink>

Wow, good work philomath! Hopefully, at least some of the equipment will turn up.

I hope they get ALL of their gear back and the perps die in a fiery space shuttle explosion.
Cult_Of_Frank Posted - 09/19/2006 : 10:19:37
The last word is that we would be notified if/when anything came from it. I'd rather not nag, though I hope that they do track down some of their stuff.

Y'no... All of this gear was stolen, but he came to cleveland like four days later and put on a hell of a show with the catholics. ANYWAY, there has to be a way someone could have really checked into this... From the pictures at the beginning of the post, I mean they had his road cases.

Tell ya all what... I am a going to jail type billy radcliffe if I ever saw some of his old equip in the haNDS OF ANOTHER BAND. 'Cause I would be holding them all at bay with a couple of broken beer bottles until authorities arrived to either sort this out or haul my ass off to jail.

Y'all should have made chrisislies give up on the name of the BAND who had it. then the loyal listeners between ohio and PA could have beat their asses

...And if I'm right, the urban plight is not the problem.

well, it has been five years since the gear was stolen, and we've gone to his shows and bought his records/DVDs so hopefully he's been able to get himself a couple of new guitars. What would be[i] cool though was if we got him a new Telecaster with some sort of frankblack.net themed motive laque (or however you say that - I mean the paint job anyhoo). Imagine seeing him on stage in 2007 with a fb.net guitar.


maybe that's a stupid idea. don't be afraid to let me know



It would be cool to us but to others it would look like he was advertising his website and much less cool. But I see where you're comin' from. :)

Haha, a fine idea. Jap Fender?

a squire or a mexican fender. and the plectrum sounds neat-o
fbc Posted - 07/22/2006 : 04:06:56
That would be pretty neat, but best make it a squire tele to keep costs down a little. A nice shiny new plectrum with the face of our prettiest forumer (recently decided by hotornot.com) if donations total a couple o' bucks.

Yes. He says the Catholics will be reuniting in countries starting with 'Cz' but will eschew most of their back catalogue in favour of Latvian lullabies.

I'll never forget this outside The Showbox one night:

Me to EDF: So, has anyone heard anything about the stolen gear?
EDF: (turns quickly to look at Frank loadin shit in a van who is now giving me the f'n death ray)
Umm, no. Sorry. Still kind of a touchy subject.
Me: Oh man, I feel like an idiot.
EDF: Ah, don't worry about it.

I think all of us (especially the musicians) felt Frank and co.'s pain upon hearing about their gear getting lifted. I remember feeling physically sick.
Cult_Of_Frank Posted - 07/18/2006 : 10:11:20
Geeze you guys are impatient! :)

It's only been a couple weeks, I imagine it's still being looked at. I've not heard anything yet from Ken.
