 * p/wishuponameteor:
 * "Also needs:
 * Getting your set cut short because the dumbass promoter forgot to check the time to see if you were beyond curfew hours.
 * Going on a frantic search for your vocalist after he went out on a night on the town, only to find him sleeping in a Walmart dumpster the next day.
 * Getting half or all of your gear stolen midway through the tour and having to borrow gear from whoever is willing to loan you some while you try to finance the acquisition of replacement gear.
 * Bumping into the members of some indie pop group that had one crossover hit that was everywhere back in 2011 at a truck stop and bonding with the frontman over you and his' respective searches for weed.
 * Having to sleep in the band's motorhome at a rest stop because you couldn't find a good motel nearby.
 * Playing at the same venue that a trap music concert occurred at the previous night and listening to the horror stories of the venue staff who were stuck working it.
 * All of these are true and were told to me by friends who are in bands."
 * p/ImDirtyDan2: "I remember someone I know who's in a band telling me similar stories to these, except for the one about meeting a washed-up one-hit wonder band. He instead met the members of 98 Degrees (the 90s American boy band that weren't *NSYNC or the Backstreet Boys) while they were loading out of the venue."
