Johnny Lightning Hollywood On Wheels ~ The Partridge Family Bus
The Partridge Family is an American television sitcom about a widowed mother and her five children who embark on a music career. The series originally ran from September 25, 1970 until August 31, 1974, the last new episode airing on March 23, 1974, on the ABC network, as part of a Friday-night lineup. It had subsequent runs in syndication.
In the pilot episode, a group of musical siblings in the fictitious city of San Pueblo, California convinces their recently widowed mother, Shirley Partridge (Shirley Jones), to help them out by singing as they record a pop song in their garage.
Through the efforts of precocious 10-year-old Danny, they find a manager, Reuben Kincaid (Dave Madden), who helps make the song a Top-40 hit. After some more persuading, Shirley agrees that the family can go on tour.
They acquire an old school bus for touring, paint it with Mondrian inspired patterns, and depart to Las Vegas for their first live gig at Caesars Palace. (taken fr Wikipedia)
