Question regarding summer touring.

Who here has toured all summer with the dead, phish, etc. I would really love to do what Kosmic_charlie is doing for a summer, it's one of my dreams. Do you just get ur tickets and go wherever the wind takes you or does it require a tad bit more planning than that?

Stories on it would be great and or advice because I plan on doing it sometime in the next few years.

Early this year I ordered tickets for Bonnaroo, Phish at Alpine, the Dead at Red Rocks and Somerset, WI. I didn't really plan any more than that, figuring out where to stay when I get there. Sometimes I would camp at campgrounds around the venue, sometimes I would camp at the venue but that cost alot of money for a poor kid like me, I slept at a lot of rest areas this summer, the best times are when you meet cool people on the road like Kosmic Charlie who let you stay with them when you are on their home stomping ground.

I buy all my food, beer and all the party favors I can before the show so I don't have to buy expensive lot supplys. Sometimes I will spend 50$ in the lot, I'll walk around finding good people I care to support, sometimes tho I end up buying on impulses.

I ended up going to Kansas the day before tha Alpine Phish shows to see them, hitching with a friend, saving gas money. I went with out a ticket and walked around and found one in the lot. Tickets for all kinds of shows on tour where available making easy to go where ever the wind takes you. You could easily change your plans and make your way to a completely different part of the country.

I had something going on atleast every other weekend this summer coming back to the center of the midwest to get a alittle work in to support my travels, I don't usually like working the lots unless I'm on a hell of a road trip, it's usually all fun for me, I don't like being a salesman of any kind. Sometimes you get in a jam and need money though, being stuck is no fun and your money chances will disappear if you don't think quickly and act while all the tour kids and locals are still in the lots/venue. There is endless ways to make money.

Bottle water for instance is like $3.00 for a 12 pack and you could sell them 2 for 1$ or even for a dollar a piece.

7$ dollar six packs of dank beers go for 2/$5 1/3$.

A loaf of bread and a pack of cheese and you can make 1$ grilled cheese's.

Or you could bring along a pack of T-Shirts to sell when cash is low, tye dyes, band t's, personal art work sells best here.

You could also walk around and ask people if they have any work and sell drugs for them, this is gutter punk work most of the time tho and not recommended, it's not cool to me unless you know what you are doing and who your working for, I've never done anything like this myself but seen it work for people before.

Lots of ways to make money, be creative.

I pretty much toured all summer (got back home today). I hit Bonnaroo, went home, then went to the last 4 of Red Rocks (the Dead), then home, then Phish at Alpine Valley (2 nights), Deer Creek (3 nights), Burgettstown, PA, and Camden (2 nights), and the Dead at Joliet, Somerset, Deer Creek, Columbus, Darien Lakes, and Jones Beach (those were the last 7 shows of the tour). It was absolutely great and I highly recommend it.

That said, it requires some planning, and a good bit of money-so you need either savings or a way to make money on the road (sell water, beer, $1 grilled cheese, other food, hemp necklaces, etc before the shows). You need the money for camping, food, drugs, tickets, and gas. My advice would be to plan ahead early, save money, and buy your tickets for the shows that will be hard to get tickets for (ie Red Rocks, the Dead at Jones Beach this year). Otherwise, you can probably get a miracle (free ticket) or buy the tickets at the venue. Also, you should print out directions for the whole trip beforehand and maybe check out places to camp (though this isn't really necessary). On the whole, you can do it with little planning, but it's a lot easier and more fun if you plan ahead. Good luck to anyone to goes on tour!! It's great!

I went solo because my friends had jobs and none of them are real Deadheads. How about I start a thread where I'll describe my summer. I'll put up a link when I get it finished. Hopefully soon.

Listen to me and make sure you see them man! :grin:

The first night at Jones Beach was very very good and I went home thinking what could they possibly do to top that .....

Well they opened the first of three sets with Uncle John's Band into Mountains of the Moon!

I knew right then it was going to be a very special night and I was right! :wink:
