Sessions wiped out
This past Sunday morning, owner John Zaskoda arrived at his Fort Worth business, Sessions Music Store, only to find his entire inventory cleaned out. Stolen items included vintage guitars, personal gear, consignment equipment and items in the shop for repair.
John Zaskoda, also a working musician himself, opened Sessions Music Store in October 2005. The store quickly became a hub for the local music community. The store also offers youth lessons, as well as consignment and repair services.
Not only will Zaskoda and his family (he's recently a new father of twins) take a hit from this crime, but numerous local musicians who had equipment in for repair will suffer losses as well.
An estimated $12,000 worth of merchandise was stolen, which does not include equipment in for repair or on consignment. Zaskoda is offering a cash reward for any information about this crime. Click below to view a complete list of the stolen merchandise.
Tonight at the Wreck Room in Fort Worth, join owner Zaskoda for a benefit open jam to help raise money to replace the stolen merchandise.
