    How I Work with Artists on Tour

    1. Advance

    Input lists, stage plots, and tech riders go out early. I confirm gear, power, and schedules with every venue before load-in.

    2. Build

    Show files, patching, and networked audio are prepared ahead of time so soundcheck is about music, not troubleshooting.

    3. Show

    Line check, soundcheck, and the show itself, with backup plans ready for the things that inevitably go sideways.

    4. Wrap & Report

    Show notes, settlement details, and lessons learned carried forward to the next city.
