pack

Sometimes, not too often, I have a relapse and hop on a shorter tour. Since we are moving our studio at the moment I store some of my equipment at home. So, this was the first time the Mothership had the honour to take my gear down to the bus. An extraordinarily experience.

This car and my old 109 are the only cars I've owned where the back seat doesn't have to be folded. But, the narrow door and the hight of the 109 would have required a helping hand. To load the Disco is, now by experience, a one man job.


The cabinet in the big black case is a really heavy piece, but with the air suspension lowered it was possible to tilt it to get the wheels on the bumper and then shovel it in. Now the technique is there, but the plastic bumper got a crack at my first attempt.


I felt that the Disco is a big car. But it is dwarfed by the new tour bus.
















An extra floor made a huge difference in travelling comfort. The second floor has 16 beds, a closet and a couple of seat rows up front. The first floor has seats, toilet, kitchen and a storage for backline and smaller equipment in the back. PA and lighs travel in a trailer.
