The label is going to fund a van for us when we tour in support for our CD, but that's not out until July. So for now we have to take what we can get and put it towards transportation to Cali just this one time.


Strange that they wouldn't just get the van purchase out of the way now rather than spend more than they need to. Maybe you should just get the money together yourselves and reimburse it with the label's money sometime before July. There are some great deals out there and it will probably be more cost effective than a long rental plus a purchase.

Just playing devil's advocate. Feel free to ignore me


I definitely hear what you're saying, but think of it this way: if you're a record label that just signed a band that hasn't played a show in over 2 years, and they're asking for money for a van, would you be eager and willing to toss down who knows how much money on the spot? Though the label has faith in us and definitely does everything they can for us within reason, it's logical and safe from a business standpoint to see how the band does on a short tour with a rental than throw down $20K+ on a van that you may not make enough money to pay off. Plus, the money we'd be making from the tour would make renting worth it.

Josh, I have experienced delicious Brazilian food...and I wish to do so much more, haha.
