Lance ,
Do you remember the bus conductors [where are they now] scampering off the bus grabbing some clearly home made, certainly did not look manufactured, metal handled , wooden block to shove behind the bus wheels in desperate attempt to stop the bus rolling back down the rather steep incline of the station's stands.I often wondered about the condition of the bus brakes if such a block was needed but still no choice had to use them . I look forward to your report regarding the gig.
