No I have no problem with him doing this - in fact it is typical Mark to use this for the tour. Wasn't there a problem with Stars'N Cars in 2010? So maybe he wants to keep Mannfred and Bernie as Drivers but is looking for a good and practical solution for keeping the tour stuff running. The Bob Tours (with Buses) showed the other possible way. Mark is perfectionating Touring over the years, he could write a book about "How to Go on Tour The Best Possible Way When You Are A Former Rock Star" when he ends his career (so hopefully never
). It is all for the good cause of letting the tour run smooth and easy. So thumps up for this decision! Even if we have to stand this unusual product-placement in the diary of an "otherwise-proud-to-be-an-independent" Musician like Guy Fletcher!
