Topic: Guitarist goes missing. Can anyone help?

Owain Roberts, guitarist with South Wales rock band The Reasoning, has now been missing for almost one week. It is believed he went for a walk along a coastal path in Mwnt South Wales last Saturday morning, 10th March. He has not been seen since. His family, friends, and bandmates are very, very concerned about his safety and well being.

A dedicated facebook page has now been set up as a focal point for any news and has all the information relating to this. Here's a link to it.

...from the website...

15th February 2012

The Reasoning regret to announce that, due to illness, our guitarist - and dear friend - Owain will be taking several months' respite from the band. Our love and thoughts are with Owain and his family, and can we please ask that you respect their privacy at this time. We look forward to his return following his recovery.

Further to Pete's post, this is even more worrying knowing that Owain took several months leave from the band last month due to illness with a return planned for later this year.

The Reasoning have gone through a number of line up changes in the last two years and have now settled on a five piece line up with just the one guitarist. Another guitarist will be standing in to record new album, although the band have suspended the studio sessions as they say they just can't concentrate on anything with all this going on.

As of now, there is still no further news. I will update this post as soon as there is.

This is the link to the official Dyfed Police Missing Person poster that has been circulated. Hopefully someone, possibly from the Cardigan area, will  come forward and can be able to help get Owain back home.

Re: Guitarist goes missing. Can anyone help?

With another christmas now passed, and another year almost gone, I thought it might be an  appropriate time to update this story. Unfortunately, there is still no news. All reported sightings of Owain came to nothing and all leads have run cold. Owain Roberts still remains missing and it continues to remain a complete mystery.

Here's a link to the latest update from BBC News Mid Wales from a couple of days ago.
