The past 24 hours have been crazy for Paper Diamond. Not only is he performing at SXSW, but news hit this morning that his backpack was stolen. As if that wasn’t bad enough, it contained his laptop as well as his brand new, unreleased EP that has been in the works for months.
To whoever stole my backpack from backstage please understand that we just really need that back.

WORST DAY OF ALL TIME

Just when all hope was lost, he tweeted out that his backpack had been miraculously returned, thanks to his large presence on twitter as his fans helped get his message out. So,the lesson of the day goes as this: if you lose your backpack, you better start tweeting.
I HAVE THE BEST FANS ON THE PLANET!! THANK YOU FOR ALL THE SUPPORT AND RTS, MY BACKPACK HAS BEEN RETURNED!!!
