Thanks so much for your reply and checking the tour schedule. Is there any chance at all they were en route from a previous venue to Illinois/Kentucky?

I can't believe it, but I forgot to mention previously that above the planetary landscape was a spacecraft that looked like Voyager from their album cover. That was what had me convinced!

I might as well tell the rest of the story. It was really early that morning when I saw the bus. I was hoping they would stop at a restaurant in Breezewood, PA before I picked up the PA Turnpike and headed west toward Pittsburgh. If they did, I was going in! But, no, they pulled through the turnstile and then pulled over. I went through and then I pulled over in front of them. I thought maybe they were waiting for the other bus to catch up. So I waited too! But the longer I did, I thought I might be missing my only chance. It was about 6 AM and still dark, but I got out of my car and went up to the bus and knocked on the door! (I am not making this up!) A big man came and stood on the steps and opened the door. I think he was the bus driver as he looked like the one driving when I had passed. The other thing I should mention was that I could see a TV on in the back of the bus, so I assumed someone had to actually be on the bus. Anyway, he was like "Yea, what do you want?" And I was all fan-girly, "Hi, I'm just wondering are The Moody Blues on this bus?" And he said, "No." And I said "Oh, well I am a big fan of theirs and this looks like their bus." "They are not on the bus." "Are they on the other bus?" "No." "Is this is their tour bus." "No." "Aw, come on, man!" He just looked at me. "Are you sure they're not on the bus?" "There is no one on the bus." "Then why is the TV on in the back?" He just looked down and I realized I wasn't going to get anywhere, all the time hoping that one of the band would just waltz right out to say hello to me. LOL! So, I stalled as much as I could, but he was wanting to get rid of me, He started to close the door so I said, "Well if you see the Moody Blues... (and now I'm thinking what can I possibly say?)...just tell them they're the best!" "Ok, but they're not." "THE BEST!" and he was like "Yea, ok." and closed the door. I went back to my car and after waiting a few more minutes, I drove home for Thanksgiving.

As soon as I thought it was a reasonable hour, I called my brother then his best friend (we listened to the Moodies together, loved them, went to their concert together) and described the bus without any hint of my belief, and they both were like "IT WAS THE MOODY BLUES! It had to be!"

So there ya go. That's the story. And I've wondered ever since.
Thanks!
