Well this was an unexpected find! While filming just outside of Boston, The History Channel series American Pickers stumbled across Aerosmith’s old touring van….in the woods! Robert Ham from Consequence of Sounds notes:
“The 1964 American Harvester Metro van, with some sweet R. Crumb-inspired art painted on the side, was found slowly crumbling away in the woods behind a farm in Chesterfield, Massachusetts, a town located just over a 100 miles west of Aerosmith’s home base of Boston…[where] the van’s authenticity was confirmed by Ray Tabano, the band’s original rhythm guitarist who was only in the band for a year. ” For the full story, click here.
