If this mini-tour is deemed a success by the standards you have set, will you be open to the possibility of hitting us out here on the left coast???
I can tell you now that there will be no West Coast dates or any other Southern U.S. dates on this run.
I will also go on record and say that Hoyt is doing a good job at booking this tour with the available resources at his disposal. ...We don't have big labels backing us so we cannot gamble on things.
I can tell you now that there will be no West Coast dates or any other Southern U.S. dates on this run. Limited Time and geographical distance alone decide that.
We have to prove these bands are a viable option on a small scale before attempting a more extensive tour with futher costs. Geographical distance and larger venues are cost prohibiting factors to make this "test" tour a reality.
You have to walk before you can run.
That said, is there anything fans can do to help you and Hoyt? I'm not even talking about fans in the cities where the tour pulls into town. I mean, all of us on the Forum. What can we do to help you guys? I'm not one to sit on the sidelines. If there's something I can actually do I'd like to do it.

We are going to put together a Street Team for the tour once we get the cities confirmed. We would indeed appreciate the help. Details to TBA.
What tour doesn't? Hell, some bands only play NYC. I wouldn't worry.
Mokena is a nice little trip for me. I can get there in under two hours, and I can get out of there, and back on the road quite quickly. It's a nice venue .. should be the perfect kind of a setup for this prospective tour. I hope to see this tour come thru there.Right? It does seem like all the shows for us are in Mokena these days.

Huh? Cleveland is a fairly reasonable spot. Most of the startup tours for this stuff came through here - Symphony X, Kamelot, etc. Its on the way to or from Detroit and Chicago, as well.I don't expect this tour to waste its time/money on Cleveland... but if it comes within a couple hours of me (Detroit/Columbus), consider me sold.
