Through the cracks

Tricky to go on tour these days, they say. Never been easy, we say. The post-world sure has been a tough one, in many ways, with plenty of new problems to get around in the live game as in the real world. Still, there's things coming through the cracks. 

You know it, you heard about it - change of behaviour, tickets moving slow, impossible to predict any outcomes, rescheduled shows, re-rescheduled shows, re-re-rescheduled shows, packed calendars and new tours coming in on top of it all. Saturation indeed, too many shows and not enough money. Inflation as icing on the cake. Big problems on the big scale.

However, those issues are not the main problems in the world we live in. The one we live in has never been easy, but it's probably harder than ever to even get shows, not to mention getting them with a decent fee, or a fee at all. Venues are harder than ever to reach, the influx of asks is constantly increasing making the used-to-be-easy-to-reach-venues the now-also-hard-to-reach-venues, which in all is making the re-start of touring a hard one for those doing the small tours on small budgets. That is, the ones who need it the most, the future of the whole game and the ones we usually work with.

All that said, we could not be happier to offer our support to those who still go all-in to make it happen. Those who won't take no for answer and who just need to go play to promote the new record, to keep the never ending building of a fanbase up, in short, those who need to play live to stay alive. Here's what's up from our side, presenting in all some 80+ shows. Ticket to ride anyone? Support the smaller outfits and the local venues everyone.
