I think the Wings 1973 tour bus is just as if not more groovy than the Beatles Magical Mystery tour bus. I wonder if they were both painted by the same people? Can you imagine seeing this parked in the parking lot? (Much thanks to Guus for posting this on the solo forum this week)
I saw this one "Life" in Rotterdam in 1972.....
ReplyDeleteWow. Going all Merry Pranksters, Wings style :P
ReplyDeleteSo, I am chatting with a childhood friend a while back and our common love for The Beatles comes up. Then out of the blue she writes,
ReplyDelete"Yeah, and I was inside Wings tour bus that year." What the....? How many years have you kept this from me??? Seriously. LOL
Your friend was inside of the bus? Was Paul in there too?
ReplyDeleteNow you can own your very own!

Sara,
ReplyDeleteIt was in Örebro, Sweden in August of 1972. I've emailed for more info so I'll add to this later. I'm pretty sure she said she rode in it.
My dad and two of his mates painted this tour bus, they only had three days notice to do it as well. It was commissioned by the tour promoter. They didnt do the Magical mystery tour one though.
ReplyDeleteThe Magical Mystery Tour bus was decorated originally with Stickers that fell off or torn off by John Lennon during the Tour . This was one of the reasons why the Bus arrived 2 hours late on the first day. The Stickers would not hold and kept falling off.
