Who stole these Slingerland Silver Sparkle drums???<\/p><\/div>\n

My older brother, Bob, is a musician who lives in San Marcos, California.\u00a0 On the 23rd of December, while he was home, someone went into his garage and stole his 1965 vintage set of Slingerland drums\u00a0 from a storage cabinet!!\u00a0 It’s bad enough to have your home violated and possessions stolen, but at Christmas time makes it even more sad.\u00a0 Plus, this wasn’t just a set of drums; this was a piece of his musical history. For a complete description of what was taken, read his ad on Craigslist here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bob says, “It is a\u00a0well-known fact among drummers that pre-1966 Slingerland made in Niles, IL, such as my dearly departed, are legendary and considered the \u201choly grail\u201d of drums. They were the same drums as played by Buddy Rich and Gene Krupa, many other renowned guys. Back then they were considered the best drums you could buy. Mine were in such \ufb01ne condition, perfect really and made jaws drop. Often other drummers or people would come up to me at gigs to say \u201cthose are the BEST sounding set of drums I\u2019ve ever heard!!\u201d<\/p>\n

If you’ve seen these drums, please contact the San Marcos Sheriff at 760-510-5200 or let me know so that I can pass along the information.\u00a0 If you are the grinch those stole these drums, please return them to their home.<\/p>\n
