From RTE.ie

"A former manager of Seattle band Pearl Jam has admitted stealing $380,000 (€277,000) from the veteran grunge act.

Seattle Weekly reports that Rickey Charles Goodrich admitted to taking the cash during his four years as the band's chief financial officer.

Members of Pearl Jam had hired a private investigator to look into Goodrich's "cash flow issues" and found records for a number of transactions and wire transfers that had been used to pay off his debt. The group have not commented publicly on the case."

How long before this gets locked? :P

    Although it's really bad and low thing for him to do (what a dog). But reality is they are not damaged by it are they ?
    The friendship and trust is what is hurt, but if he came up with honest excuses im sure pj would look over it ?

    I'm sure this will get locked, but it's a shame this happened to the band. Too many dishonest people out there. I hope they get repaid at least a portion. I'm sure as a relatively small operation, it's difficult to have oversight all the way up the chain; giant corporations with all sorts of entities watching have enough trouble.

    Anyway, glad he was busted.

    Thieves are just as bad as murderers, and if they hold onto what they have stolen without returning it they are still accountable...No such think as robin hood in God's eyes just the peoples eyes, when they steal for the children

    be willing to bet that every band is having money stolen from them in similar ways to this...
