Alex, Brian, and Charlie are rollin' from Salt Lake City to New York City on the LoveSac Bus non-stop. Good time for their semi-annual retail review, as they rev up for Manager Fest. Follow them on twitter: http://twitter.com/lovesacbus
Careful, you may not like what you see. EARLY QUOTES FROM THE ROAD....
This ranks each market from worst to first ytd. Congrats to Dallas and Capital for being on the good side.
This sign reads: "Don't text and drive."
No mention of e-mailing or taking pictures.
Stuck in traffic...in Wyoming! Un-f'ing-believable.
This is as stupid as Jell-o and carrots.
There's a dog in the truck next to us so we're using the microphone to bark at him and he's totally confused.
March 5, 2009: LA AT&T Cruise Cast Media Tour – Los Angeles
The Lovesac Bus is in LA LA Land!Cruising around LA with its top reporters showcasing the revolutionary AT&T’s Cruise Cast, a live satellite television feed designed for anything and everything mobile.We spent the morning with Winston Guillory, President of RaySat Broadcasting and spokesperson for AT&T Cruise Cast, who led multiple 30-minute tours.The highlight had to be driving through a tunnel on Sepulveda that lasts about a minute without any interruption in the television broadcast.The trick is the Cruise Cast device is able to segment and store its feed so the broadcast is not interrupted when in areas of bad reception.Even though the reporters were intrigued by the quality of the image and size of the device a lot of interest was focused on the Lovesac Bus and Lovesac itself.
Later in the day we hosted the TV Guide television crew and Marc Istook who shot a segment focused around the Lovesac Bus and its high tech devices.What a great crew to work with!Everyone was super relaxed on Sacs and Sactionals as we drove around filming Marc and Winston talked about Cruse Cast’s features and the benefits of using the bus to showcase it to the multiple celebrities that frequent.The interview should be available in the next month on the TV Guide Channel, check it out!
The bus finished the day with a beautiful sunset drive up the coast to tomorrow’s location… North Hollywood.
I have been getting tweets and texts, emails and voicemails from all over the country as the LoveSac Bus is spotted at the hottest parties and events from the left coast to the right, and everyhwere in between. For those of you who have not been lucky enough to have been invited onto the bus and thus given the consummate V.I.P. Lanyard full of codes & discounts, the LoveSac Bus is a fully tricked out 40 foot long party bus, otherwise known as, "The Mobile LoveSac Lounge." There is just so much going on with the Bus that we've decided to give the Bus its own blog! [RIGHT: M.C. HAMMERS DANCE CREW, SLC, March '09]
THIS BLOG is dedicated to following the ongoing exploits of the LoveSac Bus as it winds through the U.S. sharing pics, videos, and PG(13) stories of the craziness that seems to follow it. See the country! Go places with us without ever leaving your chair...or better, your Sac. Let me, Charlie, Alex and the LoveSac crew deliver the celebs, the parties, the lounges, and events to you. OR, get off your Sac and come find us. Beat our resident pro, California LoveSac Manager, Ezra, in Guitar Hero and you'll have instant street cred. With 8 LCD Screens, 24 Kicker Speakers, 2 inch thick wool shag carpet throughout, a fridge full of drinks, live Satellite TV powered by AT&T Cruisecast, Guitar Hero, disco ball in the window, cabinets full of swag, and most importantly: LoveSac Sacs and Sactionals throughout, the LoveSac Bus is always ready to rock.

Honestly, you have to hear this--NO, you have to feel this thing thump to understand the true power of the Sac. Riding on the bus puts you in good company too. Celebrites from the (legendary) M.C. Hammer to Vanilla Ice. Young Jeezey to DJ Whoo Kid have felt the power of the LoveSac Bus and have come back for more. Sometimes the Bus is used to cart around diva rockstars & celebrities, other times, we just use it to shuttle people back and forth from downtown Aspen to the slopes of the Winter X-Games....the LoveSac Bus is there to serve you...you just need to get our attention and get us to stop long enough to let you on. [BELOW: WALK-THRU WITH BUS IN FULL PARTY MODE, WINTER-X, ASPEN 2009]
I often drive the Bus myself--jump on, say HI. In fact, each winter I spend nearly 2 months driving the bus to every LoveSac Store in the country, selling & training along the way. Right now, Charlie, the fearless sales trainer/promoter/bus expert & long time Sac'r is driving it from west to east, stopping everywhere in between to promote and generally spread the love. Check out my personal Bus experiences of the last 6 months on my personal blog beginning here: http://lovesac.typepad.com/shawndnelson/page/4/. Read on to see the craziness of the Sundance Film Festival, the Winter X-Games, and more...all in the last 4 months.
