"Matchbox 20" and "They Might be Giants"
That was when I had a running VW and a working radio concurrently.
My VW was bought by the PO in 1980, driven for a year and parked near some
woods. The woods engulfed it and some good sized trees had to be cut for it's
rescue. I'm very surprised that it isn't rusted out. I don't know any history
on it from 63 to 80, but the 66 parts car next to it has a Canadian sticker.

Alright, so I was driving to school today (my second day of college) in the
bus playin the Zepellin 2 album, and I was thinking, the VW bus has undoubtably
been a big figure of music in the 60's and 70's. I was wondering, what's
everyone's fav album to listen to while driving their bus? I just can't decide
what mine would be, they all sound so great and the bus just magnifies their
coolness. I find myself imagining what the original owners of my bus might have
listned to as I rock out to anything from Hendrix, to Dylan, to the Gratefull
Dead, and too many others to mention. I do know one thing, according to the guy
I bought Sunnie from, she had a Gratefull Dead sticker on her back window. I
wonder how many Dead concerts she's been to. I wish knew what she went through,
or maybe it'd be better if I didn't know haha. She was a Colorado bus after
all, I wonder how many hippies she's hauled off to concerts and music fests
back in the day. And yes, even though I'm very
against drugs, I sometimes wonder if there's any pot under the back seat
(since I havn't cleaned underneath it yet).
So anyway, what do you guys listen to while cruisin' in your bus? Do you
often wonder what it went through just like me? Where do you guys think your
bus has been?
It's really fun to imagine where Sunnie's been, wish I knew.
