StageTruck driver on "Green Day" tour.HFR

At the O2 arena waiting for EST to clear out for the Spandau Ballet last night at the O2,you are an owner-driver with a super sapace daf,HFR plate last 3 digits.
Could not believe that the 7 band members of Green day punk band have a luxury tour bus each,and not share ONE coach for the 3 month tour.So much for emissions.Some drivers are owner-drivers with Stage Truck.They are advertising for a driver on their website.

green day are a three piece band :question:

Green Day have more than the 3 original members when doing live shows.Going to see them at the N.E.C in Birmingham tomorrow night.

I thought there were 3 main members but they have others at shows on guitar etc. :smiley: I also like Green Day.

by th looks of it stagetruck is mostly casual labour & o/ds theres a few fh12’s & dafs with unusual plates

The super space daf was bought from Honda racing team.There were 7 luxury tour coaches for Green day at the O2,i didnt realise that they are 3 band members,could they have been sharing with the rest of the crew or roadies.?Everyone was fast asleep at 22.30,curtains closed on the trucks and buses.They have all just come from Dublin on that day.

Stage Truck do have some full time drivers, they do general European tramping at this time of year when the tour season is over. Someone said a while back that the money isn’t too clever though.

That would explain why they have to supplement their drivers wage income and do extra work to help out the roadies and hump boxes at the venue,they get free food,that does add up,if you had to pay out of pocket.Green Day song “American Idiot” is an ace tune,my daughter likes them. :sunglasses:

Was at the LG Arena for the Green Day gig last night , awesome , really awesome

Phoenix Bussing are doing the band moves , saw them leaving the venue VERY shortly after the encore.

Going to see them Saturday nite with the mrs at M E N,can’t wait !!!

The Green Day gig was bloody brilliant.It didnt finish till 11 o clock.Any one going to see them is in for a treat.BTW the other band members seem to be with them all the time but Billie Joe,Mike and Tre seem to hog the limelight.

from what a mate that works for them told me harry, its pretty decent money compared to say general haulage, and average for show work, but unlike some firms that park the trucks up when quiet therefore saving on wages, they do get general tramping work in tho that pays less than show and tour work

I’ve asked for Green Days’ “Time of Your Life” (Good Riddance) to be my funeral song.

Having said that, I suppose she could have “I’m a little teapot” played and I wouldn’t know, or be able to do a lot about it! :smiley:
