Talking about those artists who are world famous and always have their treasured instrument(s) like Willie Nelson and his “Trigger” guitar.
Where do these artists typically store their instruments when not performing? If on tour, do they keep it on the bus or in their room?
I know everyone is different, but just wondering about some examples and/or the general places they’d keep them.
Aw man. Reading the title, I was hoping this was posted in Dad Jokes. I assume the punchline would be amazing.
In the trailer with the piano, it’s safest because the keys are on the inside.
“…In the BOX truck.”
Sorry, I got nothin’.
“In their sleevies”
Karolina Protsenko, the famous young violinist, said she keeps her violin with her at all times ever since someone broke into her parents’ SUV. Luckily they didn’t take or damage her violin, but they did get away with multiple electronics and microphones and stuff.
You gotta hate thieves 😡
I work for a lighting and staging company and it’s different with each artist, some we hold on to for the artists, some are donated to us, most are kept on the tour trucks with the crew chiefs keeping eyes on them all the time
The bigger the artist, the more likely they are to have a crew handling their gear. It is probably in whatever trailer or van they use to transport the gear when not on stage, then on/around the stage pretty quickly once the artist gets to the next city.
The only reason Tom Petty was in the Wilburys was that George Harrison left his guitar in Petty’s studio, and had to go get it. He brought Petty back with him.
I’m going to say “What is Tom Petty’s studio?”
That’s what she said.
Dimebag Darrell kept his at home. He is the only one I know for sure. Ola Englund did a tour I think.
