Back on topic: I remember when we had the high fuel prices on tour several years ago & most corps just put an empty gas can at their souvie trailer for donations. I'm sure that was really beneficial & they received a large sum of money to put toward their tour fuel cost. Corps Director: "How much did we receive tonight in fuel donations?" Tour Manager: "About $4.51. I'll add it to the staff rv." Edited May 17, 2021 by keystone3ply cx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terri Schehr Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 The gasoline situation should be back to normal by Memorial Day at the latest. This was a perfect storm of bad circumstances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fran Haring Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Dumb question perhaps, since I know next to nothing about tour logistics.... but how do corps handle fuel supply/costs? By that I mean... do they contract out or pre-pay with a supplier, pay as they go at the pump, or something else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike national food distributors, it might be a little harder to line up a national gasoline provider. Then again, maybe the national ''truck stops" might work. This is where the lead truck driver probably has that type of information/suggestions. Edited May 18, 2021 by Ghost 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
