| [00:06.88] | I don’t want to leave my home to do a tour with crummy pay |
| [00:10.14] | But if they make an offer to you whatcha really gonna say? |
| [00:13.57] | It’s hard to play an empty room, it’s hard to book a tour |
| [00:16.66] | So you pray some bigger band might say that you can come support |
| [00:20.20] | It might be a hassle, it’s a tragedy, a parody |
| [00:23.20] | But how you gonna haggle when you know it’s only charity? |
| [00:26.48] | Support tours, it’s iffy, $250 at the best, but they know a thousand others who would do the tour for less |
| [00:32.88] | Support tours, you gotta understand the situation, a band needs having patience for the vast humiliation |
| [00:39.86] | So you hit the open road and ate a lot of crazy gravel |
| [00:43.04] | With good songs and decent merch I always found a way to travel |
| [00:46.44] | But you found that booking tours can be more trouble than it’s worth |
| [00:49.62] | Who'd see your unknown band when there’s ten million on the Earth? |
| [00:52.81] | So the bassists scan the web for any tours that get announced on it |
| [00:56.21] | And if no support’s confirmed that’s when you take a leap and pounce on it |
| [00:59.28] | Support tours, drummers who are nice can turn cold-hearted |
| [01:02.33] | So you can’t return them home owning less money than they started |
| [01:05.75] | Support tours, the bassist has to grit those teeth and face it |
| [01:08.87] | Pay to stay in hotel? No way! It’s work, not a vacation |
| [01:12.75] | And after many sleazy years you nearly have your own career |
| [01:16.00] | And you can book a little tour and you can pick where you appear |
| [01:19.30] | Now you pick the tour supports so of course like chicken pox |
| [01:22.77] | Every band you ever met all pop up quick in you inbox |
| [01:25.95] | And they wanna know if there’s support acts that are yet confirmed |
| [01:29.13] | So you make them awful offers cause I guess it’s just your turn |
| [01:32.49] | Support tours, I’m in it for the money, is that funny? |
| [01:35.46] | I’m a working class musician with no funding in my country |
| [01:38.97] | Support tours, I’m thinking out my best when I get desparate |
| [01:42.01] | Find a way to make it pay cause it’s my job not an investment |
| [01:45.46] | Support tours, the sweet and sour secret of the trade |
| [01:48.42] | You learn to squeeze in every way to turn the lemons lemonade |
| [01:51.97] | Support tours, I gotta find a way to make it work |
| [01:54.84] | Till I just cut so many corners I get dizzy from the circle |
| [02:00.74] | I don’t want to leave my home to do a tour with crummy pay |
| [02:03.82] | But if they make an offer to you whatcha really gonna say? |
| [02:07.39] | "Hey Jeffrey, nice to hear from you |
| [02:08.84] | Yeah we have availed April 11 to May 15 |
| [02:11.19] | The tour starts in Omaha, you’ll be the first act out of three |
| [02:13.69] | The budget is $50 to $150 a night, but I’ll see if I can up that a little in the major markets for you |
| [02:17.93] | But we can’t have you on the bill in Portland, San Francisco, or Seattle, cause we were just down there last month |
| [02:21.91] | Let us know what you say, we’re announcing tomorrow" |
| [02:23.97] | Oh, terrible offer, let me think about it...Yes! |
