Don’t forget, tomorrow continues the BandCamp series at Caroline Collective. (Given my recent Rock Band 2 obsession, I may be considering quitting my job to join a band. that, or just to play Rock Band all day.)

What: Bandcamp: TOURING workshop

Who: Sara Winter of AEG-TMC/Warehouse Live and Gretchen Schmaltz of Western Civilization will be our featured speakers.

When: January 4, 2009, 1-3p

Where: Caroline Collective, 4820 Caroline St., Houston 77004

Why: Learn about booking a tour for your band including tips and tricks to contact bookers, routing logistics, a packing list for your tour, and best practices for promoting in an away city.

Find out more on the Caroline Collective Bandcamp post.

*We are also asking bands to submit a tour proposal to us: length, desired region, budget, why… Then we will select one of these proposals and book that band a tour. We will transparently detail every step of the way so that others can learn this process and provide guidance for our (mis)steps. By collectively sharing the Houston Music Community’s expertise and advice we’ll be able to demonstrate its actual strength.
