On Friday 20 June 2025, Gene Watson spoke of a traffic incident involving his tour bus.

‘Never a dull moment here.

The bus suffered a hit & run when someone knocked into our parked bus and now, our driver, Peanut, is doing a MacGyver fix with wire to hold the motor door panel closed until we have time to get to the All Access company for a true fix.
With a show in Tomball, TX (Friday 20 June 2025) and then a show in Gail, TX (Saturday 21 June 2025), send a prayer that it holds for the trip’
