I found this on another mailing list and it's a terrible story! You'd never think anything like this would happen to somebody, but it did. So if you move, take your U2 stuff with you in your own car!
Hello, I am Katie Lovering, a former Boston resident, who saw U2 7 times in 1 1/2 yrs 1992-93, but have been a lifelong fan since 1980. I moved to Colorado in 2001, and my movers illegally sold all my and my son's belongings illegally after they did a bait and switch to us upon delivery. They broke 2 federal statues governing movers, and have a pending lawsuit to recover monetary damages....but that cannot replace the photos I took of U2 during my most fun EVER year and a half in my life! I lost an unopened Achtung Baby LP, all my U2 CD's, 4 full photo albums of U2 photos(some signed by band and staff),some U2 comic books I found in Kansas CIty, U2 concert programs, T-Shirts, a 45 of "A Celebration", bumper stickers, ticket stubs(one was unused, from U2's Kansas City concert, I was invited to the sound check and did not have to use my ticket!), and the occasional backstage pass that I acquired (1 from my cousin, whose band opened for U2 in Worcester, MA, he was the drummer of the Pixies) and one I found in Cardiff, Wales in 1993.I had autographed 5x7's of Adam, Edge, and Bono, 2 of Bono, who told me I am an excellent photographer in August 1992 in front of the 4 Seasons Hotel! (were any of you there?) Anyway, if I have traded any of my photos to you, or have any you'd let me buy (from any show) please send me a message! (KatielovesU2) I would greatly appreciate it. I am slowly buying all my U2 CD's back, and adding new ones to my collection, and would like to get a photo album together also. Thank you for your help!!!! Katie
