Booking and Touring 101
Austin Music Foundation is bringing back its Music Industry Boot Camp (MIBC) tonight, with a panel discussion entitled "Road Warriors: The DIY Approach to Successful Booking and Touring." This 33rd installment of the popular seminar series features five local (and popular) musicians, each well-versed in scoring that perfect last-minute gig in Omaha or knowing where to get a drink when your van breaks down in Kansas City.
The lineup:
- Matt Drenik, Artist, Lions; Talent Buyer, Trophy's
- Davis McLarty, Artist; Owner, Davis McLarty Agency
- Clayton Mills, Artist, Dixie Witch
- Josh Robins, Artist, The Invincible Czars
- Thomas Turner, Artist, Ghostland Observatory
For those who'd rather just share a pint or two with some fellow musicians, AMF is also hosting an Austin Music Mixer tomorrow night at Shoal Creek Saloon. BYOBT (bar tab).

Awesome picture of Matt!
This dude may be a perfectly nice guy, but his pouty faced puckered lip bullshit makes me want to gouge his eyes out with a spoon.
