'Gangstas' following UK tour?

im sure he just means like a theif ring , more common than you think, a group of people hit cheap shows (£15 ish a ticket) full of young unsupervised people with expensive phones, cameras and lots of money for merch pick pocketing people who are distracted and when your being squashed you dont know whos going in your pockets till its too late. happens quite often at rock gigs, but the fact their following the whole tour is crazy. glad the police are involved, i mean you could imagine how much stuff would get stolen if like 5 / 10 people are working the crowd.

happend to me at fall out boy Sad

r.i.p gameboy

a good thing to do if your bringing expensive things is to put them in inside jacket pockets or a front bag, if your bringing things like backpacks put a keyring through the thingies so youll feel someone tugging on your bag if they try to open it, but doesnt always work if the theif has scissors.

^i may be doing this if that's okay with youu..

but there were police at Oxford, cuz me and my friend were going to use this phone to freephone a cab but there were a huddle of boys and policemen in front of it so idk if that has anything to do with it or not, just thought it was odd to see anyways.

I'll be using the cloakroom as well for my phone etc.

I remember seeing signs about this kinda thing at Royal Albert Hall when I saw Bullet for my Valentine. Fortunately nothing like that has ever happened to me though.

Huurm, all my pockets are pretty flat, so I can definately notice if anyone was trying to steal. But really, that's just sad. =(

Sophie (Forrest) on twitter -

"Police were outside with suspect lists and we were given bells for bags/wallets."

The police taking it pretty seriously then!

Does this happen often with fans at gigs? Did the numbers of these thefts raised?
So weird that they choose MLs tour then, instead of a really famous band.

it's happened at plenty of other tours more recently, i've been to a few gigs and i've known of at least someone to lose something by the end.
it happened twice to one friend which sucks.

just takes away from the experience of a gig where you could forget about your troubles and have some fun... :/

hopefully if there are police at every gig, they'll just not bother and stop after a while
