After a fan stole Twenty One Pilots‘ drum during a performance in Manchester on Sunday night (May 11), the band’s fanbase mobilized to help investigate and recover the stolen instrument. The thief was caught on video leaving the venue with the drum, prompting fans to launch a makeshift investigation in hopes of identifying the culprit. With the help of the fan community and key details provided by witnesses, the drum was successfully tracked down to a hotel across from the arena, where it was retrieved by the band’s security team. “We Have The Drum!!!!!!” Twenty One Pilots’ crew member Sax shared on Instagram the next morning. “Thank you for all the tags and information. You guys rock!🤘” The incident sparked outrage among fans, who saw the theft as a violation of their close-knit community, and they expressed relief and gratitude once the drum was safely returned to the band.
