I received an email from a japanesse TV producer who is making a program called "Song to Soul" which is an hour long music documentary to explore legendary songs. They are working now on Message in a bottle. He asked me if I knew the history behind the writting of the song as when and where it was writting. He told me they´ve been told it could have been writting in tha back of a bus probably while touring USA for the first time. From Lyrics and some interviews I checked I could not find any mention of this. Does anybody know something about this story? Thanks, Joe
This doesn't fit with the timeline. The Hatfield show is where it was first played live and that was right before their first American tour. José MartÃn Ramallo López wrote:

No, their first north american tour was in 1978. Their first date there was on 20-10-1978 at the CBGB in New York City and their last date was again there on 15-11-1978 after around 23 dates in USA and Canada (taken from Dietmar´s synchronology). Pete Ashdown wrote:

Well, there was the low budget 1978 tour of America. Hatfield wasn't until early 79. http://www.scarlet.nl/~gugten/ Christopher --- Pete Ashdown <pashdown@xmission.com> wrote:
