The Word Alive tracked down their gear thieves and made friends with them

The Word Alive was unfortunately robbed of their gear last week, but were able to track it all down thanks to the magic of Apple AirTags. The band met up with the guys who stole their gear and, instead of getting intense, made friends with ’em. Vocalist Tyler “Telle” Smith said the band made a peace offering of weed, whiskey, and 20 bucks to the guys, who then tried to sign The Word Alive to a label deal because they “could use a rock band”. Attila‘s vocalist Chris “Fronzilla” Fronzak commented on the matter as well.

Check that crazy shit out below:
