Tallhart – TOUR TIPS

This new set of Tour Tips comes from Tallhart! The band is on Equal Vision Records and out of Tampa, FL. They are currently on tour with Say Anything. Check out their tips after the break.

1. Be respectful of others. When crammed into a van for weeks on end with 3 or 4 guys, one needs to know when to not joke, when one doesn’t have enough caffeine, etc. The road is a fickle beast. It’s always an amazing time, but you just have to keep in mind that you’re not the only one there.
2. Bring coolant and oil. Keep up with your van. Get your oil changed. We’ve only had one problem with our van in our short years of touring and that’s because we check on it.
3. Bring plenty of clean socks. For obvious reasons.
4. Hydrate. When you don’t, you can really feel it. Especially on stage, which is when you need to be at your best.
5. Be on time/don’t piss off the TM (tour manager). When you’re consistently on time, you are dependable. People want to tour with dependable people. It really goes a long way.
