THE TREES ON WHEELS

"Take a two week break and it's Go for........."

ANOTHER doomed celluloid adventure. This was taken during the making of Trees on Wheels. It was intended to document a series of low-key gigs around the Highlands where the band would play to just one or two people instead of the "usual five or six". Unfortunately the band only got as far as Aviemore before Styx's Beetle ran out of petrol. "It was a major logistical fuck-up," fumed McPherson. "Imagine if we'd been touring the States by plane and ran out fuel in mid-flight. I might have dropped my smoked sausage supper if we'd crashed!"
