A journal entry about the wonders of duct tape. Yeah, Big Thunder (our van) started to shake and rattle and grumble about 5 miles outside of Durango so I ended up putting duct tape on the drive shaft to keep it from vibrating too badly because the U joint went bad. Once again, we made it to town in 2nd gear and really it was a pretty fortunate misfortune. The reapair shop actually shuttled us and our gear in a mini van to the gig. We got a motel room right across the street from the gig, and at the end of the night we wheeled our gear across the street on a luggage cart. We must have looked like homeless people with PA equipment. That’s what we felt like anyway.
