Shadows Fall Drummer Robbed Of Practice Pad Backstage

That's Unfortunate

It’s always disappointing to hear stories of musicians’ gear getting stolen while onstage. And apparently Shadows Fall drummer Jason Bittner is the latest victim of backstage robbery.

Following the band’s show in Atlanta, GA last night (May 7), Bittner posted the following via his personal Facebook account:

“To the scumbag who stole my Zildjian practice pad out of the dressing room at the Masquerade in Atlanta tonite….I hope you get a DWI!!!!”

No further details have been revealed. However, when you’re on the road playing shows night after night, such an incident truly sucks. Here’s hoping that they catch the thief as fast as they caught the guy who stole Jeff Kendrick’s guitar.
