Eye Empire – TOUR TIPS

Here is a brand new set of Tour Tips from Donald Carpenter, the lead singer of Eye Empire. The band will be hitting the road supporting Seether and Sick Puppies this fall. You can check out their tips after the break.

1. Baby Wipes – A Must have for Any Touring Musician who DOESN’T get a Hotel & Shower every Night!
2. Clean Socks & Underwear – I Learned a Long time Ago in the Military that You’ve Gotta take Care of the Feet. This Goes for Smells too ;)
3. Sleep – It’s the Most Important Part of Every Performance. If it was a Long & Late one, get that Afternoon Nap in! Tired = Injury for Singers
4. No Straight Alcohol – I Know Everyone Has to Be the Life of the Party but Those Shots Burn & Destroy those Chords. Save it for a Few Days Off. Stick to a Mixer!
5. Fan Time – Make Sure to Get out to the Merch Booth After your Set & Show. Being Connected to Your Fans Keeps you Humble & Focused!

BONUS TIPS (just for singers)
1. Eat Healthy & Workout – Your Body is your Instrument, the Stronger it is, the More Possibilities that exist!
2. No Smoking – It’s Hard Enough with Varying Atmospheres for the Voice to Recover Night in, Night out…throw in a Smoking Routine and it’s Impossible.
