ahoy! as there is a lot of news about our crew this page also needed little update. some is still the same - we can provide you with a complete euro-tour service including tourmanager, driver, van and backline rental, merch selling etc. but let's see what's new... it has been more or less two of us doing fluffwheels for last 3 years plus a few drivers helping us at busy times. seeing as there are more and more bands who want go with our services we needed to grow. so we'll be about 8 people for 2006! not just tourmanagers/ drivers but people back home making fluff work better and better. we asked 2 of our good friends to move to prague and become tourmanagers/ drivers and we asked our closest friends from prague to join fluffwheels and be a part of the thing which has changed our lives and come to be our greatest adventure.

THE CREW

we've found that who you are with on the road is the most important thing. that's why so much of our focus is on who we work with. there's mostly only one of us touring with the band but there's a team of people working on it to keep your tour running smoothly. our tourmanagers and drivers get support from our office where there's always someone ready to find you a place to stay, book a ferry for you or get you more t-shirts to sell. but it's not only about the people you'll get in touch with, there are also people taking care of our vehicles to make them 100% ready for each tour. back to most important thing for you: our tourmanagers and drivers have over 3 years' experience of touring, they all use GPS navigation and call this a joy more that job.

THE VEHICLES

we have a number of vans in 2 classes. fords are smaller, cheaper. All are 9 seaters. if you're a 4 or 5 piece band and the driver is your only crew member, if you go with a simple backline and a box or two of merch you'll fit. sprinters are pro touring vans used by most of european companies. ours were build specially for touring bands. they give you total comfort even if you're in a group of 8 or 9. The ones we use are 8 or 9 seaters and each has a loft with bunk and a huge loading space. all of these are fitted with air-corditioning and cd-players with iPod input.
