Does this mean now that MK and Band will be transported in these? Looks like a Reinhardt amp  ;D

Didn't Guy say in his forum some weeks ago that they probably go with the mercs again?

From Guy this morning:       

 "The liaison with VW will benefit the tour greatly, with ground transportation of the highest standard. "


So does this mean they will be touring in VW camper vans?    Perhaps they will also save on hotel bills!   :lol
Goin' into Tow Law....

The one who pays always has the highest standard  :P
First the mercedes, then the landrover and now the VW  :)

GF: "What the fans get is a FAR FAR richer experience."

Since when did they start caring about what the fans wants to hear and not what MK decides to put on the setlist? This theory doesn't resonate very well with practice.

I guess that rich people money can't buy things that poor old fans can not.

We are the lucky ones!  We will hear the new music, not old stuff he would rather not play!  ;D

Well, you are one.

Remember, if it weren't for all this "old stuff" then he wouldn't be releasing his albums today.

Split screen microbuses from the 60s are the coolest!  8)

This may lead to subtle references during the tour.

"...in the Beetle Continental with the brandy..."

I wish one of those billionaires or corporates pay a little extra and ask MK to play Tunnel of Love again, just to know that we are not losing anything  ;D
You might get lucky, now and then

It sure would be fun to know the price tag for that.

But most likely it is that one and only thing that money can't buy. Gotta have some principles left  ::)
