Eric Peterson is an unsung guitar hero in metal. The lead player usually gets all the glory but Eric is a major force in the evolution of metal. His influence can’t be understated...respect!!!
I’ve worked security for Testament in the 90’s , at venues the played of course. Newport in Columbus Ohio shout out! Seen Testament 7 times and talked with chuck a few times briefly. Nice guy. Whole band are good guys.
I really like watching these. It gives me an idea how bands live on the road and as someone who would love to be in a band someday its good to know thats kind of stuff.
+Brian Namtar yes. agree, Chuck Billy is very Nice guy, calm / relaxfull and very very very very good singer in thrash metal legend, testament.. i collecting this band vinyl nowdays, part Back, i have sometimes this band two vinyl end now i take Back all, still i have those in cds..
This is the only way I know to get in touch with my native brother, I am Jimmy whiteshield I'm 44 years old I lived in Anadarko,ok ,I'm Chickasaw/Cheyenne ,I have been a fan since I was a really young buck of you guys, you have influenced me more than you know, I just listened to "American hate" and "Native blood" I haven't heard in awhile. I just got out of prison in texas ,I know how it feels to be alone with no other natives to talk to,but I'm going to dominate, hop back on my drums and jam for awhile, thank you brother for giving me my motivation and drive back, A-ho
Right on Chuck! I got to meet you back in 96?? in Massillon Ohio at The Machine... Shit hole venue, that no longer exists. My band WARCRY, had the opportunity to open up for you guys! Afterward, You were climbing onto your bus and you turned around and shook my hand and thanked me for being there that night! It was such an honor! And you're such a tall man... LOL. I am only 5 foot 6. I'll never forget it! Thank you!
Very cool! Have you seen the Bus Invaders episodes where the band's built out and customized shuttle buses? We've got quite a few episodes like that, but they can sometime be difficult to find.
I love Chuck Billy, testament has been one of my favorite bands growing up. Him and his band and many like them sins being in metal are always the “blue collar” working bands. So it’s neat to take a look inside the day to day for them
Love testament. Fan of theirs and saw them when they came to Dallas back in 88. Got a special autograph signing too but since lost the poster. Metal bands are not rolling in the Millions of bucks people think they are. When you watch an episodes of metal bands, Those buses are rented and it cuts into their small budgets.
It's rare to see a rock or metal band own their bus. Honestly though, from our experience, we've only really seen it common to own your bus in the Christian music and country music worlds.
Digital Tour Bus yeah they used to there's footage of Gene Hoglen out there I've seen it! A lot of Thrash band's that started in the 80s used to Skate didn't you see the Testament decks/ board's that Chuck pulled out of the wardrobe in the lounge at the back of the bus where Eric was sitting down playing his guitar! """""""""""""" 😂 I'm an old school Metalhead Street Skateboarder I'm going to be 48 on Sunday! LOL Mark UK
Whoa! Chuck Billy, How about following up "Brotherhood of the Snake" with that fan Art @1:27 with a "Brotherhood of the Wolf" album.... That would be Badass!!
Slayer a bunch of times and they turn us down every time unfortunately. Metallica hasn't done a proper tour in a while, so we haven't had a chance to try for them yet, but it's unlikely they'll say yes.
Tom S. Yeah. We get turned down by somewhere between 80-90% of the artists we try to get. In this line of work, you have to get really good with dealing with rejection.
The way that they set up the opening of this series is like the opposite of reality porn wherein some chick goes up to a house and knocks at the door for sex.

This man beat cancer and COVID-19 within a year. He’s invincible.
Glad he's okay.
Covid and cancer are both losers.
Chuck is a really cool and friendly guy
It’s all that native blood
Haha! Was there Covid back in 2001????
I don’t know how musicians live on the road like that. Props to them.
Yeah, it's definitely not easy.
That's luxury on tour.
I am a huge fan of Chuck Billy, an excellent vocalist and business man
Definitely!
What s his business? Is it trucking business?
@Robin Stiff Testament have sold over 14 million albums so I am pretty sure they are making good money.

He's awesome!
Testament is so good live. Nice to see how they tour.
I met all the testament members in nj in 2016 and they were all huge they gotta be at least 6'3 o 4 they were humble
6’5” at least.
They are really cool guys. Gave a few friends and myself a tour of their bus in Germany.
+shred fred Nice!
I remember their VW bus in the Nobody's Fault video; they've come a long damn way huh???
:)
Wonder if Chuck's safety spiel at the end was a Cliff Burton reference
Not sure
also Atheist had a bus crash back in the 80s or 90s and their bassist died by the side of the road
Chuck is a safety director for a trucking company when hes not touring.
@@digitaltourbus Death Angel had a bus crash incident on their Act III tour in the early 90's.
I was thinking the same thing
Wowoweewa, their bus is quite snazzy with the marble and all
+signer530 Yeah, definitely!
Testament is featured on the new episode of Bus Invaders!
Chuck seems like a cool
guy.
+Brian Namtar Chuck happens to be a big guy with a big heart yeah
+Brian Namtar yes. agree, Chuck Billy is very Nice guy, calm / relaxfull and very very very very good singer in thrash metal legend, testament.. i collecting this band vinyl nowdays, part Back, i have sometimes this band two vinyl end now i take Back all, still i have those in cds..

Thanks for all the work you do to show us how all our favorite bands live on the road, much respect DTB..
No problem Scott! It's definitely a labor of love.
Testament is something else man! not at the same play with all the other big four guys. Testament is out of this worldly
Thanks for watching.

You should ask slayer to do an episode.

The granite pattern is awesome. I'm going to build a shuttle bus probably similar to this.
Very cool!

Lol fridge is stuffed with mainly creamer and Greek yogurt.
+Robert :)
You guys have any good smoke on that bus!? Testament #1 🤘🤘
Thanks for watching Jason.
cosy but cramped, I wonder if it gets stressful in there?
Depends on people's moods I guess. Life is what you make of it.
Yo he wasn't jokin about that coffee. Mad creamer in that fridge.
Whoa! Chuck Billy, How about following up "Brotherhood of the Snake" with that fan Art @1:27 with a "Brotherhood of the Wolf" album.... That would be Badass!!
That's done it! Me grocery list is gonna have a Testament letterhead...
Thanks for watching!
Es el amor de mi vidaa lo amooo 🤘💀🤘💀🤘🤘💀🤘💀
Thanks for watching!
Like Billy Chuck and Testament
🤘
Met him many moons ago on practice wat u preach tour, he's right he is a big son of a gun. Cool person .louie
🤘
you have to do this with Morbid Angel
We'll try to get them next time they tour through our area. Ultimately though, it's up to them.
\\m// \\m//
Chuck you from the awesome party boys
🤘
CHUUUUUUUUCK! RULES.
He most definitely does!
How much Chilli could a Chuck Billy Buck if a Chuck Billy could Buck Chilli?
hehe
I want his autograph 😫
🤘
It's pretty comfortable
Thanks for watching.
He looks like the younger brother of Tom Araya
HOLY SHIT A SOULS OF BLACK DECK
Never, no books, no magazines, no press.... only TV and CNN on it.
🤷🏼♂️this is the most I've seen any channel reply to comments on a video.
We try our best to respond to everyone. 🤘
have you tried metallica or slayer?
Slayer a bunch of times and they turn us down every time unfortunately. Metallica hasn't done a proper tour in a while, so we haven't had a chance to try for them yet, but it's unlikely they'll say yes.
Digital Tour Bus damn that sucks
Tom S. Yeah. We get turned down by somewhere between 80-90% of the artists we try to get. In this line of work, you have to get really good with dealing with rejection.
That doesn't surprise me one bit that both of those bands would turn you down.
Metallica would be a jet. They havent toured with a bus in decades.
Hey Billy, can I come too?
The way that they set up the opening of this series is like the opposite of reality porn wherein some chick goes up to a house and knocks at the door for sex.
Metal and coffee
Sriracha and vodka.
This guy knows what's up. 🤓🤟
\m/
Go figure, pulled over in Texas, ugh! At least the cops didn't plant anything!
Thanks for watching.
You guys need a bigger coffee maker on that shopping list ...
Appreciate you checking out the video.
Yuo was my main band...
oRGANIC WHAAT
It's the official Testament grocery list -- 1:55
Thanks for watching.
Testament skateboard decks!
🤘
I have a really dumb question...Do bands usually sleep in the buses or in hotels??
Depends on the size of the band. Most bands in the metal and rock community sleep on their buses. Big pop stars and bands like Metallica likely don't.
You guys should try behemoth or lamb of god
We've tried many times. It's up to them, not us.
Influencia de the beatles..
Chuck Billy TESTAMENT
🤘
Eat healthy: peanut butter, chips and bread - yeah right, and I'm the pope's granny.
Peanut butter is actually very healthy
🤗
Coffee is good
👍
Самый красивый автобус.
Thanks for watching
