Summary

In Episode 42: Rock N' Roll Express, the guys are joined by Conor, who is a tour bus driver out of Massachusetts. Conor got his start driving while he was touring around the world with his band Energy, where he was their driver as well as a musician. He drove the band's van to each of their venues, and also began learning how to drive with trailers. Later Conor obtained his CDL and drove tour buses all over North America. He shares many stories from on the road, including famous bands on the tour bus to an insane UFO encounter! If you like music, you'll enjoy this one! So sit back, relax, and buckle up, as Conor cranks it to eleven on this wild ride.
