Today I’m answering your questions from the After the Gig Facebook group.
It’s been a minute since the last podcast, and I’m super happy to be back after the summer hiatus. I hope you and all your families are doing well and had a great summer.
Onward to fall! I am currently sitting in the green room of our first tour stop in Crawfordsville, IN. It’s great to be back on the road, and I’m excited to get back behind the drums to melt some faces across the country.
In this episode, I get into tour experiences, taking social media breaks, quirky habits, and the dynamics of life on the road in a band. There may or may not be a short rant about technology and social issues in the world today... Nothing crazy.
If you have more questions, I always invite you to email me at afterthegigpod@gmail.com.
Also... and this is a big one. Your support keeps this going and allows me to bring you more consistent content. If you could, please consider becoming a paid subscriber to After the Gig!
Hope you’re having a fantastic week!
best,
Jesse
