The British band Sports Team have been robbed at gunpoint on the first day of their US tour.

The indie group, who have scored two top 10 albums in the UK, lost their passports, stage equipment and personal belongings in the incident, as a thief looted their tour van in the city of Vallejo, in the Bay area of California.

I thought Australia was the convict nation. New title holder.

The US was used to dump British convicts (and other undesirables) first, about 52 thousand of them.

Former, they had a change of heart and got rid of their guns. Still, would rather be be stuck in a nation of convicts than a nation of relious zealots, at least the convicts know how to have fun.
