This is super helpful to artists wanting to learn how to tour. Thanks! "We're gonna be alright. We just have to figure out what the problem is" - Julian Tabares. This is gold lol
Really interesting video! When I leave for a tour I spend most of my time with anxiety until I start to play. Fun fact is I don't feel the same when traveling for tourism. This is something I have to work on, but watching your video is kind of helping and inspiring.
Yeah man, I used to feel the same way when I first got started and as soon I found a good group of musicians that were all friends around me I realized I didn't always have to be stressed. Thanks for watching man.
@@TravisDykes yeah I think touring with my current band should be cool. Thanks! Preparation is the key to avoid some stress so I keep working on the set. Relationships with the other band members is pretty good... I must think about that nothing bad is gonna happen.
Great video! I´m a christian sound engineer here in Denmark, and i think the most importan is, to respect eachother. And as you say, the touring people is youre litle family. God bless you brother
Great video! Will you also show us how you travel with your bass? It looks like you have it with you at the gate, but then what? DO you buy an extra ticket for it? Does the crew stow it away for you? What kind of case do you have to make sure it's protected? Do you purchase flight insurance for it? Enquiring musicians need to know! 😂👍🏽 Thanks in advance!
Man, I like what you have going on with your page. A lot great material. I'm not a bass player, but guitar player and I've been able to ascertain some nuggets from you. Thanks so much and God bless you. Keep up the great work.
WOE! I was literally just wondering about this topic. AND the fact that I'm trying to learn to play bass adds even more zest to it. I'm looking very forward to this. Thanks in advance. PS The Lobby Call pic was awesome. lol
Idk if I’ve seen a video of a band touring houses of worship before. I’ve seen plenty of videos from worship bands and church sound engineers, and I’ve seen plenty of vlogs from touring musicians. I just haven’t seen the two together, which is pretty cool. I’m a house sound engineer by trade, in theaters and clubs, so I’ve seen many touring bands come through. It’s just kind of cool to see a church doing the same, you don’t see them having touring acts as often. I think it should be more popular. I think Congregations would love having new touring groups come in and spice it up every few services
Awesome stuff!!! Looking forward to more. Maybe you could do an episode on traveling with instruments and gear. I am always looking for new and innovative ways to travel. Thanks
I've wanted more than anything to be able to experience that life at least once. I been hittin since I was 3 years old. But I've never had a chance to tour! I Loved this video though! I felt SO INSPIRED!
Bro. Do any of you do custom fitted ear buds for your IEM's? If not, how do you find the right ear bud fit for your IEM's? This may be a good future video to talk about IEM'S.
Hey love the video question when you fly how do you take your bass on planes I be flying out of state and don't know if I can bring the bass on the the plane with me or you send it through luggage belt can you recommend a case for me?
@@TravisDykes yeah I flew with my bass for the first time I was so nervous but it all work out now just bought a gruv gear kapsule for my bass for my next flight thanks for the response and keep the videos coming 👍
Can you give us some advice on becoming a touring musician. I’ve been playing for several years at my church but would like to go out and play at venues.
Leaning 50 songs in such a short time is quite a task. As a professional, are you able to perform flawless ( ex no wrong note) and if not, how do you fix the mistake.
It depends Ed. You almost always you travel with your own instruments, effects pedals, etc. Any amps and speaker cabinets are typically provided by the live sound company or venue, unless your using an in-ear monitoring system, in which case you would use your own in-ear monitors, which would be connected to the sound company or house system to get your mix. Depending on the show or tour, the drummer may play a house kit or another kit that's not his own, but in most cases they will bring and play their own kit. Usually only larger tours bring their own PA systems to the venue. Most tours typically use the house system and just bring their own sound engineer to run it since he knows the sound and mix the artists/band is going for. as well as the songs so he can ride the faders and make adjustments accordingly during the show. Hope that helps!
Dude, I can't have anything on my wrists or fingers when I play. Obviously your totally sweet with it. I see you have your (looks heavy) watch on when playing. Main reason I can't get married, I could never wear my ring and play. 😂

dont know why the algorithm sent me this but loved the video

Hey love the video question when you fly how do you take your bass on planes I be flying out of state and don't know if I can bring the bass on the the plane with me or you send it through luggage belt can you recommend a case for me?
I usually take my bass as a carry-on on the the plane or gate checking it. Because checking your bass is always too much of a gamble to take.
@@TravisDykes yeah I flew with my bass for the first time I was so nervous but it all work out now just bought a gruv gear kapsule for my bass for my next flight thanks for the response and keep the videos coming 👍

Excellent content!!! Thanks

Big Thanks
I love seeing Presonus being used by artists, I feel less alone haha
Who organizes all the traveling and booking of flights?
That was really interesting. For a brief tour like this do you travel with your own instruments or do use house instruments?
It depends Ed. You almost always you travel with your own instruments, effects pedals, etc. Any amps and speaker cabinets are typically provided by the live sound company or venue, unless your using an in-ear monitoring system, in which case you would use your own in-ear monitors, which would be connected to the sound company or house system to get your mix.
