It was stolen from outside the hotel while they slept. The moral of the story is that a) you don't stay in shitty neighborhoods and/or b) you get a bigger fucking lock.
The show tonight in New Haven was still very good. Lou played his giant sled-like Fender Thunderbird bass, which his friend Zeke brought down from his parents' place in Westfield. It definitely had a different sound to it (or so I thought) -- a lot less distortion & sustain, not as much of a high-end. Lou wasn't all that broken up about it, actually. J was mostly OK ("stoic" -- imagine that
). His wife Louisa was there when it happened so she helped him deal. They drove back to Amherst to get more gear. You could tell he didn't have his usual arsenal of effects but he was still as God-like as ever.
