im not sure why we got away with what we did the last couple of days before the bus
broke down. it only seems appropriate that the engine just quietly quit. my psyche was telling
it that either i have a mental break down or the bus so she became the martyr ...

first off detroit as a city is as american Apocalypse as we have, block after block
of beautiful archetecure rot, trees growing off the walls of buildings who refuse to give up
long after the community has. boarded up neighborhoods and corporations. we drove the
bus to pick up the audience and bands around an island that was a car racing track. we had
a bbq where lots of young hip folk showed up and dropped acid. that was pretty much the
beggining of the night.
i didn't know that when the sudden flash thunder storm hit that more lsd was being passed
around. we drove thru a stampede of the baseball stadium emptying out into the rainstorm
a drenched girl escaped the shower with her bike by asking if she could come into the bus. she stayed with us all night. other random folk hopped on at the next stop
we pretty much hijacked the audience of the "question mark and the mysterians"
show. we parked at the roll up door to the show right in view of the stage. the band was just
starting "96 tears" thier big hit from the late 60's and soon we had lots of old hippies in the bus
while a band was playing inside the bus. we took over thier parking lot after the mysterians
were finished.
then we drove our larger audience to the 20 story monster empty trainstation. where promptly
all the audience floated into the haunted building.
little did they know or could process that we had been followed there by the most stealth cop car i have ever seen

the cops slowly drove up to my drivers window with the head lights off. sat there then drove to the corner of the block and watched as hallucinating people ducked under the barbedwire
and entered the train station. the band was pod blotz
whos blast of noise could be heard echoing thru the building.
then. strange enough to not really be out of place. a mini van
full of drunk people with black metal corpse paint showed up:

I was going to use this as a "story of the bus escapades" however, i often like other peoples version of what happened more that how i saw it. these are only my versions from where i saw it. i do lots of other things besides the bus - so ill stray.
