Tour Planning, what a pain in the butt!

I don't know how many, if any of you, have planned a tour, but WOW, it is really time consuming. There are sooooo many things to think about. From where to sleep each night, to how much money we need to save before we leave, to what are we gonna eat, oh, don't forget we need a trailer, etc etc etc.... Its really ridiculous! I've been doing calculations for the money we will need and every day something new gets thrown in the mix. I mean, the number is already sky high... its going to cost us close to 13k to tour for 60 days... but that number was before i realized we all have cell phones to pay for...ugh! Oh, we also needed to order t-shirts, drumsticks, guitar strings, drum heads, our new dvd's are being ordered and pressed as we speak (Some of you 6-flags kids will be in that)... this is all on top of actually booking the shows and promotion at places like Hot Topic and local radio staions.. who knew?

We are starting a donations fund... just 13k to go, who's in? lol

On another note, we are SUPER excited to be going on tour!! We can't wait to meet fans from all over the country.... and the thought of playing 60 shows in a row just sounds awesome!! Some of us haven't been west of the Mississippi River, so, that will all be new to those, I think Mike, Chip, and Tony haven't been out west... I could be wrong though... but I know a couple of us haven't. Oh wait, Tony did a job recently in California, so, just Mike and Chip. So, be sure to give us a big Kansas style hug or a Las Vegas style lap dance if you see us to make us feel welcome :) We also want you all to buy our t-shirts so that we can one day soon be walking down the street and see our t-shirt on a random person... how cool would that be? So, buy them, tell all of your friends too, we want to start a movement called BHL, and we want you to be a part of it!!

ohhh, and we are probably going to need places to sleep as well. We are planning on camping most of the time, however, a few nights in a real house will probably be nice... so, if you wanna party with the next big thing (how conceited are we? lol) then let us know, and we're there dude!

OK, signing off for today, this is two posts in one day, off to a good start... leave comments and pictures and what not on here... we might post them in places that more people will see, like, on a projector at our shows... just saying... who knows!

Here is a picture of Matt and Shawn with our new friend Taylor and her friends! Taylor writes her own music, you should check her out! I'll post a link soon.
