311 | Itinerary

Tour itineraries are often called the book of lies by the road crew. The problem stems from the fact that the production manager is trying to get so many things ready for the upcoming tour that the information about dates that won't happen for another 2 months always seem to change after the book is printed. Nonetheless, a tour itinerary, and a laminated pass are tools that all national tours rely on. Generally touring personnel are given 2 books. One for themselves and one for their home or home office. The itinerary I am auctioning on eBay, traveled with me and the band during the tour of 2006, although I kept notes in my second copy , so this one being auctioned has very little writing and is in very good shape. I imagine some fan might like to see the specifics of different venues, hotels, and promoters that the band encountered on this national tour. Also listed are the names of the touring personnel, promoters, times for sound check, breakfast, lunch and dinner, as well as warm up act information. Any non- public information about the band or its touring crew has been redacted for privacy.


The cover art is beautiful. Soon I will post some old tour laminate passes and gold record awards for auction. A portion of the proceeds from this auction will benefit MAPS. Never heard of MAPS? Please check out the auction.
