tour bus: traveling broke and out of gas


yesterday we met the members of 'traveling broke and out of gas' at an undisclosed farm in jasper county, for a performance/party/painting/bonfire/food/fun.  they are beginning a tour in a few weeks, and asked if i would be interested in painting their tour bus.  which, of course, i was interested.

mindy and i drove out, unloaded boxes of spray paint and got to work.  i marked out the band name, and started laying down colors.

after getting the band set up, patrick wetli joined me in painting the bus, helping to put down some color blocks and included some of his own images in a bird stencil and a train on the back of the bus.

we worked for about 6 hours before it got too dark to see well enough to get things right.

and while we got most of the bus completed, i'll have to meet up with the band before they leave on tour to finish out the right side.  it was a lot of fun, and they are going to be unmistakable either rollin' down or broken down on the road.  here's to a great and successful tour and a safe and creative trip...thanks for letting me paint the bus!



p.s. also check out the band 'traveling broke and out of gas' on Facebook!
