Ore. Band Thanks Chicago PD for Finding Equipment

Members of the Oregon-based band Portugal The Man thanked Chicago police on Tuesday, offering to send them "a pile of doughnuts," after investigators recovered thousands of dollars worth of gear stolen from the band's van following an appearance at the Lollapalooza music festival.

A mechanic was accused of buying the items — including vintage guitars and amps, keyboards, effects pedals, drums and microphones — at a flea market in Chicago even though he knew they were stolen. Police said $80,000 worth of equipment was found in his home.

On the rock band's Facebook page, front man John Gourley wrote that band members were depressed over the theft when they got a call from their tour manager that the items had been found.

"Thank you Chicago PD and don't be offended when we send a pile of doughnuts over," Gourley wrote. "We are understanding in its simplicity. It's like a marathon runner eating a stack of pancakes before the run. It is much needed energy in your long days of crime solving and we appreciate this because, well, doughnuts are delicious.... All respect."

Juan Ocampo, 39, was charged with one count of felony theft and ordered held in jail in lieu of $10,000 bond after police found about $80,000 worth of the equipment Monday in his apartment, Assistant Cook County State's Attorney Erin Antonietti said.

During his bond hearing, Ocampo said he knew the instruments and sound gear were stolen when he agreed to purchase them for $1,000, Antonietti said.

"He said he was scared to bring the items to a flea market all at once and planned to resell it a little at a time," Antonietti told Judge Ramon Ocasio III.

Ocampo also told investigators that he was afraid to sleep in his apartment while the items were there because he thought they were probably stolen, adding he was staying at his girlfriend's house, prosecutors said.

According to a police report, Ocampo said a man whose name he didn't know sold him some of the instruments for $500 and indicated he had more. Ocampo said he agreed to buy a guitar, drum and keyboard and indicated he would pay him the additional $500 after he sold some of the instruments.

Double bass drum pedal // Rock Band®

I am playing on the standard Rock Band drum set, and have purchased an extra drum pedal + a jack-splitter, so both of my drum pedals are adapted to the set. But when i hold down the one pedal, I can't use the other one, which means i have to lift up my foot to press the other one down - can I somewhere buy a drum pedal / double drum pedal or an entire drum set in which this is not necessary? The official madcatz pedal comes with a splitter that works properly if you can find one, some third party pedals work but you would have to look up which ones, and for the best solution you could use a real kit with the midi pro with real double pedals on the kickpad. Keep in mind that there is no support for double bass unless you're on xbox and use the RBN. © 2007–2010 Harmonix Music Systems, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
