True road warriors, they’re about to head out for a colossal adventure around the nation, in some places having to create venues, because the places they once played no longer exist.If you’ve never thought about what it takes to put a band on the road, and indeed keep a band together for as long as they’ve been together - this conversation will shed a lot of light on the realities of life as a member of a band which is truly a household name.‌Subscribe to the newsletter here: http://oshergunsberg.substack.com/
