Stolen Bus !?!

Yes, our bus(Crystal Gayle's) was taken from it's usual place in the Prevost yard in White's Creek TN by the nutcase who ditched the Walmart truck last week. The latest is that there is no confirmed news yet. Just rumors that the fugitive driver and bus may have been recovered.The good news is that we're just doing fly dates until April and the gear was off-loaded from the bays. Can't buy publicity like this, I tell ya! Keep you posted.

How strange that this dorkweed has chosen to steal big huge vehicles for his escape. I was just listening to Art Bell (maybe Crystal's biggest fan...) on the radio, relating the theft of "Old Blue". Sounds like it's been resolved... but it's still weird to think of some stranger tooling around in your home away from home.

Forgot about trying to hear Art(I'm out of town), would've liked to. Have been following CNN, who says the thief and bus have been recovered in Daytona as of Friday night. Haven't heard if there was any damage. We're working this week and will update on the news.

Interesting little update here: apparently the Daytona police stumbled onto the bus during a prostitution sting and one"lady" was seen leaving the bus about 11pm Friday. They then arrested the guy, who didn't seem to have a clue that he was wanted(in FIVE states). Looks like we have the world's largest pimpmobile.
