Stradivarius cello recovered

Sign in to disble this ad
Okay, it's not a bass, but I heard on the radio this morning that the Stradivarius cello (valued at $3.5 million USD) that was stolen in L.A. by a guy on a bike has been recovered. They didn't offer any more details except to say that no arrests have been made. The LAPD will hold a press conference this afternoon.

This is music related, right?

Or the butt commander that got drunk in a bar and left it sitting there.

That Posterior Pugilator was lucky and the instruments were found in the alley of the bar.

My axes are worth only a fraction of what that cello is worth, but I ALWAYS know exactly where they are.

That was last week, it was the dipwad that left
it on his porch as it turns out.

Must have had some mighty fine spirits at that reception
for the LA Symphony or wahtever is was that he was
doing that night.

Apparently, some kid on a bike swiped it off his porch,
I have heard.

There was another incident where an Arab taxi driver
in NY returned a 2 mil+ cello to a guy who left it in the cab, drove it back to his hotel. Brilliant. Betcha he was like,
first chair or something ...

I once left a Yamaha 12 string out on my porch. It rained.
It filled to the soundhole with water. When I found it the
next day, I poured it out and air dried it. Became my beach
gitter for a couple of years.

Stuff happens. 'Specially when you been a bad boy, and lose
your mind along the way.
