Practical guides for the person who ends up running the band. No fluff, from people who have done it.
The run-up between yes and show day: the deal, the rider, the schedule, the crew, the travel plan and the settlement. Without living in your inbox.
Followers you rent, a mailing list you own. Collect fans with a QR code, your website and your show pages, and reach them when it counts.
Dropbox and Drive fill up with stuff you can never find. Where your show photos, rehearsal recordings, songs and versions actually live.
A page for your gig that your social ads point at, with a Meta pixel that measures visits and click-throughs. Know what your campaign did.
Followers aren’t fans, the algorithm buries your gig, and you don’t own the platform. Why a website earns its place.
Getting a date everyone can make, saying yes to gigs without a clash, and planning the show day. Without the group chat chaos.
Gig money, expenses and who fronted the van. The fair ways to divide it, without becoming the band’s accountant.
