You can't even take a dip in the Indian Ocean these days without getting your gear jacked. Minneapolis band Tapes 'n Tapes was outside of Perth, Australia this past Friday when someone broke into their van and stole their passports, some gear and lots of personal belongings.

The band put out a missive on their MySpace, asking for fans to keep an eye out for any of these stolen goods:

-black macbook - serial ..4H6460RRWGM
-silver mac 12" powerbook - still looking for the serial number
-blue and black graves suit case with all sorts of colorful t-shirts and some stinky levi's jeans, and even stinkier socks
-green russian made big muff pedal - hand decorated with picture of gene simmons face (also know as the "limited edition gene simmons big muff")
-silver US made big muff pedal - (with a number of soldering jobs done on the battery connection)
-a bunch of tapes 'n tapes CDs (US version of The Loon) and t-shirts (white with colored trees on them)
