It’s still part of the caravan of buses and tractor trailers on Kenny’s The Big Revival tour. Kenny bought the bus before he hit it big, so it was a big gamble for him to make such a big investment.
Kenny explains, “It was a used Silver Eagle when I bought it — and the bank had no business lending me the money ‘cause all I owned was a little pickup and my guitar. But I knew if I owned my bus, we could keep doing this, keep bringing the music to the people!”
Members of Kenny’s tech crew travel on Moby these days, but the bus still means a lot to the country superstar. He even wrote a song about the vehicle called “If This Bus Could Talk” that’s included on Kenny’s latest album, The Big Revival.
