Trailer was one of 18 that was on the way from Bergen to the Eagles’ stock Switzerland and their next concert in Finland with precious musician equipment that belongs to The Eagles and was used during the concert in Bergen on Monday.
Large parts of the equipment is now strewn in the trench next to the trailer. To all hell is mostly packed in sturdy boxes, and the driver hope the damage is minimal.

This is extremely expensive equipment, so I hope most are rescued, "says the driver to ba.no.

Withstand a punch
Frank Nes Live in Bergen confirmed to nrkhordaland.no that he knows of the accident at Voss. He says that there is good hope that the equipment has tolerated impact. -
Everything is packaged in boxes that are designed to sjaues with. They are solid structures and to tolerate some solid punch, "says Nes to nrkhordaland.no.
He also expressed relief that there was only material damage in the accident.

Police on Voss has so far not been in place and do not know the details about the accident.
- We will probably go down to help with traffic when the trailer will BERGES, says police chief Einar Bystøl by Voss lensmannskontor
bloody hell thats not good!! but the stuff is audio rent, so it should be fine as its pretty indestructable, and will be well packed
main thing is the driver is ok, suprised the rumour mill has not cottoned on to it yet, this is the first i have heard about it
“To all hell is mostly packed in sturdy boxes, and the driver hope the damage is minimal.”
Good job too. I wouldn’t want to be carrying hell around if it wasn’t packed properly!
Incidentally, I’ve been spotting transam trucks all week. Seen one going in and out of our yard and another has been parked up down the road. It turns out there’s a stage company called “brilliant stages” or something along those lines, which is around the corner from out yard and they’re using part of our warehouse for storing their gear. They’ve got some very peculiar looking constructions for U2’s forthcoming tour, sections of a tower in the centre of the stage, or so I am told. They were shipping stuff out to Barcelona. Although I’m not much of a U2 fan, I’d love to be doing the driving!
alright manowar you should see that stage when its erected… infact i think euromat has a diary of it on here somewhere as he is on the tour and met up with him in belgium when they erected it… its effin huge… take it your in hitchen then… you will prob see a lot more Trans-am truck soon as the tour starts in a few weeks. Try and get a few pics for our mate hutchie can ya…
