Oh man, what a story!
This was 9 years ago - but it was damn thrilling to read today. 56 pages filled with action, drama, emotion and many many proofs that osg is probably the best guitar associated forum of all times!
Thanks Zhivago for putting me that direction earlier today! Hats off to Sauerkraut! You definitely did the right thing!
So sad that SY split up... can you still get to Lee's concerts on the guest list?

Now this is a thread worth necrobumping. Was such a crazy story to follow. So many of these posters don't post anymore. Kind of makes me sad.

Re: The OH MY GOD! I BOUGHT ONE OF SONIC YOUTH´S STOLEN GUITARS thread
I'm so glad you bumped this post. It is indeed a "great story" and an affirmation of the belief that there are genuinely good people in the world, people of good character, who don't have to think hard about "doing the right thing", they just do it.
It could be compared to the Vivian Maier story* whose beginnings played out on real time on Flickr at the same time this was playing out on OSG. The Vivian Maier story ended very dissimilarly, however; with greed and opportunism instead of righteous humility and good vibes. This story is better for that reason alone.
I wonder how many SY shows Sauerkraut went to before they split, how he did with his thesis, and what he's doing now.
