They filmed the bands converting the bus interior, which included installing benches that folded down into beds, an overhead net to hold luggage, and a loft to stack equipment.

Mike Ness and Mark Stern drank heavily during the tour. "That was the only thing that kept me going", Ness later reflected, acknowledging his alcoholism during that period. Stern recalled that in New York "Mike Ness got the shit beat out of him — he literally shit his pants. It was at the club 2+2.
