We want to thank everyone for listening to the podcast these past two years. It’s been an incredible journey making this podcast, hearing about all our guest’s journeys, and helping our listeners get on the road. Thank you to all our Patreon members for supporting us on this journey, we hope to meet you all in real life. We aren’t posting every week but Adam will still intermittently host episodes when he discovers new guests. Be on the lookout for those new episodes when they drop and always remember, don’t shit on the bus!

Paul Bradely is the Founder and Owner of Eventric, which is mostly known for their app Master Tour. It was nice to have Paul on and understand the inner workings of such an important part of the touring industry. Tours simply wouldn’t function today without the help of Master Tour. If you don’t know what Master Tour is, chances are you have not toured. Thanks again Paul, look forward to meeting you in real life.  

Nick Martin is the guitarist and backup vocalist/screamer for the band Sleeping With Sirens. In today’s episode, we go over Nick’s love of coffee, what it’s like being a member of Sleeping With Sirens, and how Nick gauges his success as he’s traveled through this industry. Thank you so much for coming on the podcast Nick!

Joshua Roberts is the lead vocalist for the band Magnolia Park. Not only is he the lead vocalist, he is also a photographer, videographer, and works closely on the band’s brand. In today’s episode, we dive into how Joshua joined Magnolia park, what it’s like to wear multiple hats in a band, and how anime helps inspire the group’s branding. Thank you so much much for jumping on the bus Joshua and we hope you all enjoy this week’s episode!

Austin Roa is a touring photographer and videographer. He has worked with artists such as The Lumineers, HOZIER, and is currently out with AJR. In today’s episode we dive into how Austin began his career in music from shooting DIY house shows to leveling up to international arena tours. Just like on tour, he only brought good vibes and stories for this week’s episode - thanks for coming on Austin!

Kim is a program director at Calling All Crows. They work with venues, festivals, and touring crews to help end sexual violence in the music industry. In today’s episode, we explore what sexual violence looks like in a concert setting. We cover on a very basic level - how to handle these situations when they arise - from both the crew and attendee perspectives. However, I would heavily recommend taking their online course as it goes much deeper than we do.  

Matt is a VIP coordinator who is currently working at 237 Global Inc.. They help create VIP experiences for artists such as Shawn Mendes, Hella Mega Tour, and Wiz Khalifa to name a few. In today’s episode explore how artists have created bigger and better experiences for their fans and how you can work in VIP.

Justin is currently drum teching for Slipknot and was kind of enough to jump on call with us mid tour, all the way from Slovakia. Had a solid time catching up with him and hearing it’s like touring with one of the largest metal bands in the world.

Sam is the lead vocalist of X Ambassadors and Gabe is their long-time tour manager of 10+ years. Sam talks with us about how X Ambassadors is constantly striving to fine-tune their shows while Gabe simultaneously progresses his Tour Managing skills to match the band's growth. Any touring team that can stay together for 10+ years is doing it the right way, thanks for sharing your stories and advice this week - looking forward to meeting you both in real life one day.  

Everyone please welcome this week’s guest to the bus - Jonny Craig! I have known Jonny for awhile, but had never gotten the chance to sit down and talk with him. Some of these stories are hard to listen to, but I’m thankful Jonny is able to tell them so that we can all learn from him.
