- In this video, we're taking you on an exciting journey as we embark on transforming a former tour bus of the renowned band The Darkness into a comfortable home for our family of six. This unique project combines creativity, resourcefulness, and a touch of adventure as we repurpose a piece of rock history into a cozy living space!
Today, our focus is on addressing some practical challenges that come with converting a tour bus into a livable home.
Our first task is to tackle the smashed windows which have seen their share of rock and roll chaos. We carefully remove the damaged panes and discuss our plans for installing energy-efficient alternatives that will provide both privacy and protection from the elements.
Another important step in our conversion journey involves beginning the removal of the existing air conditioning system. While functional for its rock-star passengers who prefer cool interiors, the current setup doesn't align with our vision of a family-friendly space. We'll walk you through our plan to replace it with a more home-suitable system that meets the diverse needs of our family.
Join us as we breathe new life into this tour bus, transforming it into a welcoming sanctuary on wheels.
By the looks of the wiring you have taken out. The Coach wants completely rewiring to be safe. That’s the trouble with wires that are hidden from site . Great work so far guys . 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Yeah most definitely and that’s the plan. Scary how something bad didn’t happen to it really. Thanks for watching.
Morning gang, another great video, love how you squeeze the kids into the narrow gaps to do the dirty work. I have never renovated a vehicle but done loads of houses, it always seams to take forever to rip the old stuff out before you can get started rebuilding. Have a good week.
That’s what’s kids are for isn’t it ? 😂😂 thank you for watching!
@ it’s a good job it doesn’t have a brick chimney 😂
Yeah it’s probably a good job 😂😂
Only been watching since the purple bus, but really enjoying so far. Keep up the good work! 👍🏻
Thank you so much for watching ! :)

It's 6:30am on the day I start my new job as a trainee bus driver, so couldn't resist a bit of Six in a Bus ... As always a fascinating video & Cliff definitely seemed to be happy to get in there & get his hands dirty, so well done to him too.
Aww thanks for watching. We really hope your first day went okay !
Great progress guys ,good job you caught the wiring before it’s created a big mess

Steady is definitely one word for it! These things take time as you know! Hope you’re keeping well and warm!

Thanks for watching :)
Hi Guys. Came across your channel earlier tonite, and was somewhat surprised to see what I believe to be the tour bus which was used for the first European tour of a very young Sam Smith back in 2014, I joined it as 2nd relief driver in E. Berlin and drove it back thru Brussels into Paris for a gig before returning it to UK with the band and crew to lay down the last few tracks in London on his 1st Album which went platinum within 6 weeks. Did a couple of uk gigs in Brighton with it too on its return. Happy memories as a rookie on my 1st ever Band Bus tour. So the bus is probably more famous than you think.
Aww that’s so cool. We will add it down into our history book of the bus !!

Hello Clifford, famous at last
❤️❤️❤️ he’s a good lad !!
Both of you are doing great work and quickly seeing you have children a married and full time jobs
Thank you so much 😊
wish i could come and help you when doing it all but you are down south because i like buses and i have my psv and i like campers to
Depends on what you see as down south? As we are based in Rotherham! Thanks for watching , happy new year 🥳 x
Just seen you go past beefeater in Rotherham
Thanks for finding us here. Hope your enjoyed you meal !!
Great video. Are you going to get the rubbish out upstairs via the roof holes?
You really need the rubbish from the top deck clear before sorting the windows.
It will come out one way or another 😂😂 the problem we have is where we are going to put the stuff when it does come out ! We are waiting to get our van back so we can start shifting it bit by bit. Thank you for watching :)
YEEEEEEEEE HAAAAAAAAAA
😂😂😂❤️
The wiring in a lot of bandbuses is frightening really
Yes the more we find the more we wonder what else we will find. I think a lot is just added to meet the needs of the client and just done with a view that will do !
Thanks for watching xx
Wonder when this bus had a full deep clean including steam type cleaning they use in hospitals to kill all germs and viruses etc
Probably never 😂😂 it will get a good clean before we put things back in, as at the moment more and more dirty etc is falling off !
Thanks for watching :)
Would it have been harder/easier to convert a passenger coach rather than a tour bus? It doesn't look like much is being kept from the tour bus and unbolting seats from a passenger coach is straightforward.
Yeah it would have , but where’s the fun in that 😂😂 we loved this bus for the history behind it ! And we definitely love a good challenge! Thank you for watching :)
Was PSV glass expensive
Not overall bad. We are currently in talks with them to get it all sorted. Thanks for watching
BE CARFUL WITH FUSEBORED
The fuse board has been removed :) thanks for watching !
We’re can you park.as I am thinking of buying a a bus .but a small one.and start doing after xams .a mate off mine have taken all the seats out for me .Carl in Norwich.
Hi Carl , we have been in our current double decker bus for 2 years now and never found a problem , so we are confident that this will be the same. Good luck with your build ! Thank you for watching :)
Apparently your bus is red lol
Ahaha it’s definitely has been at one point!! Thanks for watching !!
Leave all the windows alone and ring a public carrier vehicle glazier from east Yorkshire glazing they will come to the buses and do the window removal in one piece as they have the tools to remove the windows and they would of replaced the broken windows for you and the family it would of been a safer way to work and it would of cost you less if you and your wife had not smashed the windows the glaziers could of refused the class windows in another bus or coach project
Do you work for East Yorkshire glazing ? Because this is a good plug for them 😂😂 we don’t need the whole windows to come out , we are just getting rid of the pains that are damaged ! We have a method in our madness! Plus it makes good content doesn’t it 😂 thanks for watching!
Why dint you both contact a public carrier vehicle glazier to remove the old windows for you we ith the original tools to remove public carrier window glass you should of known better with you been an old bus driver why don't you ring east Yorkshire glazing they would of come out to the bus and
They would of removed all the glazing in one piece
We have replied to your other comment 😂
