What to expect when on tour


Recommended Posts

On the whole injury thing or heat stroke issue. We never had anyone drop on the field or suffer major injury. Couple of twisted ankles or sprained knees etc... Sorry to hear about that for the young person that sounds like has their whole life changed now.

expect an injury from doing a banana-peel-like pratfall after stepping on a poodle-sized cockroach in abalamba

expect to face the decision each morning of a) cap'n crunch or b ) warm shower

expect to sleep in the witchita salvation army ( 2 shower heads total ) and practice on the dog-pound burial-grounds (shiver)

expect to be doubled-up standing-room only after a breakdown with the luggage in the aisles for 200 miles when it's 850 degrees kelvin in the middle of utah

expect the wrath of hung-over instructors ( coffee at morning practice is a good sign - milkshakes is a bad sign )

Another story: More Kewl than funny.

Our drill camps in winter here were so fantastic because we could use the Goodyear blimp hangars to practice in.

It got us used to echoey stadiums and kept us dry and warmer in winter. And of course, those hangars are HUGE, so we could work on the whole show all winter long. Not just the music only.
