Crowfield bus trip to NYC and SIR


First we have a nice visual aid to compare the crowmobile and the bus. Just a slight step up in comfort! Then a nice shot of my kids trying to stow away/ enjoying their first, hopefully not last, visit to the top bunk. The bus was picking us up early evening on the 16th for a leisure cruise overnight to NYC where we were to play a showcase for some record bigwigs the following afternoon. Soon after we were under way Bones, our driver, informed us that Wayne Newton had just used the bus before us and had left some snacks! Wayne's brownies were a big hit with all. I kept one to have bronzed and use as a hood ornament. The trip was super comfy, satallite tv, wifi, my own icey cold bunk, and of course the tasty snacks. We pulled up to SIR rehearsal studios early afternoon, had a nice load in in my pjs, grabbed a bite, and proceeded to rock. Rocking in the room next to us was none other then the strokeman his self, Billy Squire! He still sounded pretty good after all these years. Afterwards we went out to dinner and drinks and fun times and friends in the city. The rest of the boys got to enjoy that sweet ride in the bus back home, but I was lucky enough to have a 6am flight (meaning a 4am cab ride to the airport!) to Louisiana to start my run with Mr Hoge, but that's for another post.......
