the game and its pieces

the game is called "booking a tour" and it's hours and of fun.

Object:

align 5 shows together in both a chronological and regional sequence.

Obstacles:

you are relatively unkown, people lack imagination, you are relatively unknown

Directions:

1. Gather your materials (press kit, contacts of venues, patience)

2. Roll the dice (email the venue) if talent buyer emails you back (this could take 1 day to 4 weeks) move forward two spaces. If there is no response, role again.

3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 at least 30 to 40 times a day.


Seriously... booking cd release tour for October and it's starting to come together...

Tue. October 19 @ the Town Pump Black Mountain, NC
Wed. October 20 @ Snug Harbor Charlotte, NC
