Paper Tiger (Doomtree)

SPB: How does Doomtree travel? Do you all pile into a van or bus?

Paper Tiger: We have a van named Mountain. If the tour party and merch/gear are too big for the one van we will rent a minivan to roll along as well. In order to tour on a bus you need lots of money. I once lived in P.O.S.'s van for an entire summer with no AC. Sleep, eat, everything. It may have taken a few years off my life, but I enjoyed myself.
