Every musician knows that touring is an unglamorous part of the job, but Reba McEntire tries to make it as luxe as possible. Back then, she traveled with her team in a trailer dubbed “Big Red,” which included a kitchen, king-sized bed, a full bathroom, and bunk beds. Her drummer Tommy Harden gave fans a glimpse of the touring life during McEntire and Kelly Clarkson’s “2 Worlds 2 Voices Tour” in a 2008 YouTube video. While Big Red wasn’t shown, there were several large tour buses in the parking, with one including a small galley, a sitting area with a table, and 12 bunk beds. We’re sure McEntire’s bus was more spruced up, but the space looked pretty comfy, if a bit tight.
McEntire’s preferred mode of travel is by air, and she shared with Jetset Magazine that she owned her own private plane. “We have a Phenom. But when we’re going cross-country, it’s more economical to fly commercial. Our plane works great when we’re touring and need flexibility on our schedule. I haven’t had a bus of my own since 1989,” she shared. Owning a plane is not just for comfort but for practical reasons as well. “It’s lengthened my career by a decade. Because of having a plane, I can do so many more things to promote my career in between the jobs I have. Plus, it allowed me to do my concerts and fly home after the show,” McEntire added.
