ROCKERS STUNNED BY FANS' HELP
U.S. rockers the PLAIN WHITE T'S are convinced they have the best fans in the world - after they turned a nightmare into a Christmas miracle.

The band's equipment was stolen from their tour van late last year (06) and the group members faced a bleak Christmas with nothing to play. But, after appealing to fans to help cheer them up, they were inundated with well wishes and cash. Singer Tom Higgenson explains, "Fans heard about it and they wanted to help, so we made a little PO (Post Office) Box and we said, 'If anybody wants to send us cards or anything, here's a PO Box.' "We didn't expect money but a lot of people (sent it). It was overwhelming the stuff that came in... Some kid sent, like, $5 and it was his allowance for the month, or something."
