13 shows in 28 days
11 consecutive days with a show
6 different states
3 festivals

TB needs to talk to their management and see how they can get on board.

fwiw, macpodz probably are getting paid a lot less than what the breakfast can get paid for a gig

They may be getting paid less per gig, but when you multiple that dollar amount times 13 rather than 2 (TB gigs scheduled in September) and factor in the exposure that they will get playing 13 shows (including Moe.down) in 6 states over such a short period of time, my guess is that their efforts are paying more in cash and in future fans.  

This is the time of the year that TB should be out there playing as much as they can.  That being said, if they\'re after the college kids, then they need to haul ass in the fall semester, but also should realize that the working community is not always as acessable during that time period.

they should go after the college kids more.  they\'re a lot more likely to be able to get, say, their entire dorm at a show if they like the band.

us working folk have a lot less show going time in us and friend pull.  in general.

we have a lot of friends too but it\'s a lot less likely for us to get all my friends out to a show in comparison to when we were all in college.
