This Is Hell – TOUR TIPS (Part 2 of 2)

Hardcore band, This Is Hell, have written a set of Tour Tips for you guys to learn from. You can check out part 2 of 2 after the break.

6. Don’t put a bottle you pissed in back in the cup holder of the van.
7. Don’t rush your band onto a bus when you can stay in the van. Coming home from a tour with some money is much better than having a 3 week rockstar trip cause you were on a bus.
8. Quit smoking because stopping for smoking breaks is rude to whoever is driving when they just want to get their shift over with. Plus who makes enough money on tour to support a smoking habit?
9. Do your homework and read up on Black Flag, DOA and Dead Kennedy’s before you complain about how your tour sucks and there should be more people at your show and your rider is whack and all that shit. Those bands invented underground touring for all of us and suffered through a lot worse.
10. Kissing ass of bands in a better position than you and looking down on bands in a worse position than you is transparent and makes you look like a complete douche. No one will ever be impressed by this and you’re probably into music for all the wrong reasons if thats you.
