So almost moments after I put up that last post last night, our bus was hit.
Now this isn't one of those "crazy driver on the highway" stories, this one is much more ironic, and fitting of our history with this bus.
The place where we played last night was in the center of an old strip mall, so all 4 buses were parked in the loading area around back. It was kind of a big inlet, and the building came out on both sides, so facing the building, from left to right it went wall, Rev Theory's bus, our bus, space, Puddle of Mudd's bus, and Saving Abel's bus. Both Saving Abel and Puddle of Mudd had pulled their buses around front after the show for some reason or another, and the party was moving up to the front. Leigh, myself, Matt, and Dave were on our bus along with a couple Saving Abel guys, and the Rev Theory guys had just left our bus because they were about to move their's to the front. So we're chilling in here watching Super Troopers, as well as random Youtube videos, and suddenly we hear a loud crunch, and our entire bus jolted to the side. We look out the window to see Rev Theory's bus almost in T-Bone position with ours, and starting to back up.
So it seems that our huge bus that had been parked in exactly the same spot all day long, which also had exterior lights on on that side, was completely invisible until point of impact.
Hey, I don't know.
Everything got worked out though, and as an upside, the convex mirror on that side was broken already, so it was hard to see traffic on that side, so yay! That will be fixed at some point, whenever we get time to get the bus in the shop again.
On a side note, before this all went down, we were ust chillin on our bus when Wes from Puddle just barged right in with arms full saying, "Hey, you guys want any plates of burgers and fries??"
He has to be one of the most random guys I almost know.
That's all for now...
