Anyone wanna go on tour??

I met with the absolutely adorable Amanda K. (of Good Egg Productions) last night at the Delta Cafe to talk about Music promotion and booking bands. I've been around in the PDX music scene for a while (and thus, typically, think I know everything about it) but most PDX bands stick around town or go on a one stop tour.

Amanda's originally from Oklahoma, and works with a diverse spectrum of bands from Jazz to Experimental to Pop and from the East Coast to the South to the West.

We talked about why it is that shows are packed in small towns and large towns but PDX often has a low turn out. Her shows around the rest of the west coast are packed! We agreed PDX is over-saturated. Sucks to live around so many rock stars... ;)
