Thieves at the Roundhouse? Lost/stolen phone
An unusually high number of people were left at the end of last night's gig (including myself) looking on the floor for our phones. Some guy near me had his iphone vanish, mine went during the scrum of Motorcycle Emptiness and I spoke to at least 5 others whose phones had gone.
No one found their phones, not even broken bits of them, so it seems as if we were hit by thieves. I was on my own so there was nothing I could do, though a very pretty girl volunteered to call my phone - it rang, I left a message but this morning it goes straight to answerphone. So basically, don't leave your phone in an open pocket. Zip it up, or better yet leave it in the cloakroom in your bag/jacket. I'm not actually too bothered - it's a work phone so it costs me nothing. It's just the SIM being nicked that's annoying - it's PAYG so there was only a few quid on it, but now I have to get a new number and let people know (I've even backed up most of my numbers). Just in case anyone here has it - it's a chunky black Sony Ericcson C905, the sliding kind. Anyone here experience the same thing?

Thanks for the heads up, looks like some Ben punches to the back of the head could be issued tonight.

they don't search you, so you can bring in all the drugs and weapons you could possibly want.

When i saw British Sea Power there last year, i was with a girl who had her iPhone nicked. seems these immoral theives at least have good taste in music. They'll be getting a good taste of fist if they try to pinch anything of mine!

I'm with Vodafone and have lost my phone countless times and always been able to retain my old number when I have the lost/stolen phone's SIM canceled. I've always just been pay-as-you-go, so it may be worth your while getting in touch with your provider and seeing if they will do this for you too.

I think I'll stand near the back with my back to the wall and a "Get the fuck away from my pockets you parasitic lowlifes" glare on my face.

Jesus, that's nuts. I wonder do these assholes go to gigs just to steal shit?
I was at a gig a while back and some twat tried to nick my girlfriends camera. She put him in a wristlock while a mate called the security guys. I came back from the bar and was told the story. I'm never messing with my missus. |

Probably - £25 for a ticket, and you're easily going to make that up and much more by just nicking a few phones, especially if you get an iPhone. There are probably some people out there who pretty much make a living out of it.

Swines. I'd be tempted to have one of these in my pocket if I were going.
