A Quick Love Letter
Dear tour vendors, support companies, and anyone who has ever panic-ordered swag at 2 a.m., we adore you. Truly. But for the love of all things road cases and FedEx cutoffs, please give us your confirmed (or potential) tour dates for 2026.
Nothing spikes cortisol levels quite like realizing your final show is tomorrow and you have not swagged the band and crew that made the tour, and your business, a success. Suddenly the only option left is overnight shipping that costs more than a hotel buyout. And no production coordinator likes getting swag on the last show day. That’s not a gift, that’s a task. Let’s handle that at rehearsals instead.
We want to stop that kind of scramble. We are very good at stopping that.
Tour Routing Is a Superpower
Tour routing is not just dates and cities. It is a cost-saving, sanity-preserving, sleep-protecting roadmap that lets us do what we do best.
When we know where you are going and when, we can:
- Ship swag ahead of time to the right city.
- Combine shipments instead of sending panic boxes across the country (or to another country).
- Use ground freight instead of overnighting.
- Stage inventory strategically so you are never stuck short.
- Deliver swag to a home show so you can actually be there to receive it and hand it out.
Translation: fewer fires, fewer invoices that make you wince, and fewer texts that start with “Hey, quick question…” at an ungodly hour.
The Real Cost of ‘We’ll Figure It Out Later’
We get it. Tours evolve. Schedules change. Chaos is part of the gig. But when no one is paying attention or asking the right questions early, the costs add up fast.
Overnight shipping is aggressively expensive. We are talking thousands of dollars that could have gone toward better swag, better experiences, or literally anything other than shipping fees.
And it’s not just money. It’s stress, last-minute tracking refreshes, and hoping someone is awake to receive a delivery at a venue loading dock.
All of this is avoidable.
The Payoff: Calm, Control, and Credibility
When you share your tour dates early, everything runs smoother. Swag shows up where it should and you look like the calm, collected wizard you are. Meanwhile, we get to do what we love most (making you look good while preventing disasters you never even have to think about).
With Love and Slight Desperation
Please. Send the tour dates. Send them now. Send updates when things change.
We promise we will treat your tour schedule with care, discretion, strategy, and a level of attention to detail that might surprise you.
Your future self, your budget, and your sanity will thank you. And we will be standing by, ready to make sure your tour does not require an overnight miracle.
