Virgin Gorillaz Train

/ Nathan Lavertue / Leave a comment

This is how public transport should be done. Unveiled Monday and travelling back and forth between London and Manchester, this tricked-out locomotive from Gorillaz aritst Jamie Hewlett is to promote the forthcoming circus/opera he’s involved with called Monkey: Journey To The West . It’s based on an ancient Chinese legend and the music has been composed by Hewlett’s partner in the cartoon band, Damon Albarn. The show kicks off this year’s Manchester International Festival which runs 28 June – 15 July 2007. Click here for more info on the festival.
