The Str8OutDaDen Podcast

For the past couple of weeks I've been on the road for The Daylight Savings Tour with J-Coop & Rod McCoy. When we first made the announcement, questions about how almost immediately hit my inbox.

Now that we are half way through the tour I figured I would give you a few tips about how we were able to get it done. We talk routing, morale boosting, crowd funding and everything else you need to know when setting up a tour.

So you know the drill...sit back...Relax and Listen!

If you follow me on Twitter (which you should be)then you may be familiar with a mini rant that I went on a couple of days ago. This rant was the direct result of an email I received about submissions on our site.

That email sparked about 20 tweets that was nothing but gems, so I felt it was only right to share with our podcast family. So today we give you the results of ranting on Twitter and expose when venting goes right.

Oh and if you are trying to get your music on a blog, then you may want to pay close attention too.
