The morning after Sunday’s Metallica concert, Gavin Strickland called his parents with a horrible confession: after driving across the Canadian border from Syracuse in the name of heavy metal, he’d lost the car. “He works at Lowes here locally, and he’s biking to work until he gets the car back,” Eric told The Star. “I told him, ‘don’t come back to the U.S. without a car!’ ” Eric said, chuckling. Last winter, the 19-year-old lost his car at a concert in New York, but it was found shortly by police several blocks away. In the case of the last concert Gavin had driven to — “which he won’t be doing anymore!” Eric added — a spare key had fallen out of his pocket onto the ground near the parked car.
