Update 2.0
The cops wouldn’t let me take my gear because the homeowners ran and I couldn’t prove it was mine in their eyes. The promoter did find out that somebody stole it and sent some people to recover it all (except my 1/4 adapter) and deal out some Texas style justice.
I did learn a lesson from this and my plan for future events that aren’t in clubs is going to be to ask for a $700 deposit incase my gear gets damaged or stolen again. If the night goes as planned I take my cut and give the rest back at the end.
About the gear though: I’m going to just wait until the NDX 500 officially comes out just so I can get used to playing with out hot cues.
