4. You are paid Every Single Day that you are out on tour whether you are driving or not.
Common questions
1. The average is 4 shows a week, maybe 1500-1800 miles per week. The average overnighter is 250-300 miles, some longer, some shorter.
2. We drive at night and sleep during the day. We sleep in our tractors at the venue on show days. There are showers every morning and many times after the show in the dressing rooms. Many guys go to a motel on multiple show days in a city.
3. You have one tractor that is assigned to you exclusively and that is your tractor! Our tractors have APU units. We have nice new trucks!
4. We have no husband wife teams, there are no riders and no pets.
5. We do have to team on occasion for larger jumps between cities. We fly in a team driver, who is picked up on the way out of the city, is with you one day, and then flies out the next city.
6. We do not load or unload. That is done by the stagehands. However, we are present to ensure that our load is secured properly with load bars and cargo straps.
7. Our terminals are Pennsylvania, Nashville, or Los Angeles. We will fly you to the truck.
