The Case Of The Magically Missing Bus!

Everyone’s a target when the times are tough!

Kate Moss‘ on/off boyfriend’s band, The Kills, has just had an entire tour bus worth of gear and belongings ‘stolen’ from them.

According to reports, their bus – along with its driver! – has vanished!!

They last saw the tour bus and its driver in Los Angeles last week.

The driver was supposed to pick the band up in Austin, TX on Sunday.

Needless to say, he never showed up!

Yesterday, Tuesday, the band issued this online plea:

THE TALE OF THE MISSING TOUR BUS
Hi everyone….

I’ve got a lot of news from the road and i will fill you in soon, but first:

OUR BUS DRIVER IS MISSING AND/OR HURT/DEAD/or A THIEF. OUR BUS HAS DISAPPEARED.

How can 3 tons of black metal vanish into thin air?

Im asking myself the same fucking question.

Anyone seen a black ziggys tour bus traveling somewhere between los angeles and austin texas?

Eyes peeled ladies and gents x a

The band’s record label says federal investigators and police have been called in.

A label rep said, “It is thought that the driver has committed grand theft auto or that he is in some kind of trouble.”

The Kills have continued on with their tour of the U.S. (with the Raconteurs) with no luggage or belongings.

Thank goodness that English pound is stronger than the U.S. dollar. It must make having to buy all new stuff here in the States not so painful, right?

Did Kate Moss secretly get in touch with the driver and put him up to no good?

Hope the band gets to the bottom of this craziness soon!
