Cyber PR Music Campaigns By Ariel Publicity Are you ready to reach the next level…

I use priceline.com and hotwire.com to save money on the road. There are some inside tricks which you can google to find out. Here’s an example of what’s out there if you search around: http://www.gadling.com/2009/02/16/budget-travel-becoming-a-master-of-priceline-hotel-deals/. I also like betterbidding.com, a website which lists successful bids on priceline, by area, so you can get an idea of what hotels are actually going for on priceline. On average I pay about 50 a night (after tax) for a 2.5/3 star, and have gotten some awesome extended stay hotels for 35 a night, with a kitchen and full suite.

I think that you can always learn from those who came before you. Some fundamentals of touring, such as putting in as much effort to promote, advertise, market, and be human as you do to learn and play your instrument isn’t going to hurt you.
