Balto – TOUR TIPS

This set of Tour Tips was written by the vocalist, Daniel Sheron, of the folk/rock band, Balto. You can check out Daniel’s tips for being on the road, after the break.

1. Almost always say “yes” to the weirdos you meet – This is what you’ll remember from the tour when you need to tell your friends what a long, strange trip it’s been – follow them into sticky situations, but bring a buddy or a can of bear mace.

2. Bring one big aerobed – it supplements any couches you may encounter, but be prepared to spoon/be big spooned by your bassist.

3. If all else fails, meet back at the venue the next morning – sometimes you get separated, cell phones die, relationships must be explored, don’t let logistics keep you down. When in doubt, ask yourself “What would Nate Dogg do?”

4. The infinite property of Pabst Blue Ribbon – If you drink PBR and only PBR, you can rock indefinitely – it is basically water and won’t get you too fucked up to load out -a when you switch to real beer/booze, things go downhill fast.

5. When you leave the van, you can’t talk like you do in the van – Well…you can, but you will eventually go to a diner, and there will be children present, and you will scar them for life.
