Chicago to Amsterdam

filed under: roadies — christopher @ 3:11 Thu

I would like to announce notice to all:
From Chicago to Amsterdam -
(while the case was in United Airlines possesion)
Four Cameras and a 250 gig hard drive
disappeared out of my road case,
and are now missing.

No to mention battery packs, cables and such.

I am bummed and handcuffed.

• Update •
still no word from United about any of this.
Just heaps more paperwork to fill out.

A couple really great things:
Since I always carry a camera with me,
I still have my new digital.
So I am still able to shoot.

Also, my good friend Hans, has given
me the opportunity to shoot with one of his
systems, and its fantastic.

Thank you, Hans, you are a visionary artist
and a perfect gentleman, and friend.

So after all that,
I am still shooting.

Many Thanks and gratitude for all the support and love from everyone.
I will be posting current photos shortly.

  2. WTF…United needs to reimburse you stat!! I hope it isn’t a case of someone dipping in your case there on the ramp. They should have a chain of custody. Let me know if I can help in any way, Vince. I am sorry man!
