You might remember Grizzly Bear as one of the 'major players' in the Great Indie War of 2k9, the Battle for the #1 Album on the Pitchfork + Billboard Charts. It seems that the lead singer / 'front man' Edward Droste gave away his guitar for the sake of helping people in Haiti.  It seems like the guitar will be auctioned for money, as opposed to donating it to a Haitian family to jam on.  While this might be for a good cause, insiders can't help but speculate that this guitar was spiritually linked to the strength and success of Grizzly Bear. By giving away this guitar, insiders imagine a scenario where the band is 'cursed' and their status as a relevant band fades away, losing their massive fan base and authentic credibility.

Ed’s parents gave him the guitar on his 15th birthday. It’s not only the guitar he learned to play on but was also the primary guitar used on Sorry for the Delay, Horn of Plenty and Yellow House, played by both Ed and Daniel Rossen.

Will members of the band Animal Collective purchase the guitar and put some sort of curse on it in order to derail Grizzly Bear?
Should Grizzly Bear have 'manned up' and donated a Volkswagen instead?
Will Grizzly Bear be able to survive the loss of this guitar?
Will Grizzly Bear be able to 'top' Veckatimest without this guitar?
Will some alt bro purchase this guitar and use it as a 'cum rag'?
