Have you seen this bus?

Alright, well not this bus... but one that looks mighty similar.

Montreal Band, The Dears, had their Tour Bus stolen from outside of their hotel last night, (Yes people, someone stole a giant tour bus) and their asking everyone to be on the lookout for it. Here's a notice their label has sent out in hopes of some citizen detective work.

Hey friends,

We at MapleMusic Recordings have a favour to ask of you. We were hoping you might be able to let us know if someone tries to sell you a giant tour bus, possibly with a smashed window. Or if you spot such a vehicle flying down the highway. Because this morning, when The Dears went outside expecting to get on their bus and head to Toronto for their show at the Mod Club (followed by a long string of North American dates), they discovered that the bus was gone. The trailer had been unhitched, and luckily their gear wasn't in it anyway, but it's still a huge downer. The band was renting the bus from the lovely people at HalJoe, so it's a kick in the shins for them as well.

We'd be very grateful if you could help spread the word, or let us know if you hear anything. In the meantime, the show at the Mod Club will go on tonight in Toronto!

Thanks!
