| ______________________________________ [Nov 10,2011 4:42pm - the_reverend ""] SOB old news! |
| ____________________________________ [Nov 10,2011 4:43pm - Alx_Casket ""] Warning level raised. |
| ___________________________________________ [Nov 10,2011 4:44pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] i only hope to make enough money touring to continue on to the next tour stop. anything else is unrealistic at this point. |
| _____________________________________ [Nov 10,2011 4:46pm - Sacreligion ""] This article basically explains how even that goal is unrealistic. |
| ___________________________________________ [Nov 10,2011 4:51pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] awesome. i'm doing it least once in my life anyways even it kills me... which it probably will. |
| __________________________________________ [Nov 10,2011 4:51pm - largefreakatzero ""] This is not news. Stay home, play for (or with) yourself, because you're paying to play even if you're not paying to play. |
| ___________________________________________ [Nov 10,2011 5:06pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] You dawg I heard you like pay to play.. |
| ______________________________ [Nov 10,2011 5:23pm - Lamp ""] Who the hell is Oh, Sleeper? Has anybody ever heard of this band? |
| ______________________________ [Nov 10,2011 5:26pm - Yeti ""] DIY, fuck managers. |
| ______________________________ [Nov 10,2011 5:29pm - Lamp ""] Also, I thought this was kind of old news by now. I certainly wouldn't be looking to make any money on tour, I'd just be saving up year round and working my ass off to go do a tour to begin with. And tour managers, venue cuts, loooooooooooool, people wonder why I hang shit on the Palladium and Scion and shit like that, here's your reason. |

| ____________________________________________ [Nov 10,2011 5:40pm - AndrewBastard NLI ""] lol at v necks |
| ___________________________________________ [Nov 10,2011 5:48pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] it helps if your band doesnt suck. |
| ____________________________________ [Nov 10,2011 5:48pm - Alx_Casket ""] Someone give hivesmasher a record deal already. |

Also, this is only relevant to bands who generate enough interest to warrant a tour, so I'm gonna leave thread and never come back :( |

| ______________________________________ [Nov 11,2011 12:59am - t2daeeknli ""] besides the new bass player and keyboard player... but the old bass player drinks enough for both of them to prove previous point.. |
