DoDriver's 2017 European tour & CD
Donation protected
DoDriver has an opportunity to play in Europe in October of 2017 and show the EU what they've been missing all these years. With your help we will be able to play in front of a few thousand new people and make some new lifelong fans just like the ones we have here! We will be going from October 1-15 and playing 10 shows (possibly 12) in Germany, The Netherlands, Czech Republic, Poland and Switzerland. Austria and Hungary are also possibilities depending on scheduling and routing.
In the long history of our band we have had many accomplishments that any band would be proud of, recording 5 albums, playing in 6 states, Puerto Rico and Canada, opening for dozens of national headliners at some of the biggest venues in western New York, winning a nationally sponsored contest and playing with our childhood idols KISS! BUT, we are still not quite where we would like to be in our musical career.
The band will be supporting INTERNATIONAL TOURING Legends Lord Bishop Rocks for 7 of the shows and headlining the rest of the shows. We will be filming every show, broadcasting live from some of the venues and recording a song in a studio in Budapest. DoDriver has a lot of great support in our hometown so we hope you will afford us this new and exciting venture, we are raising the money for the cost of the tour, travel and the production of a new CD and merchandise. The cost of the tour is $9500, the travel is $5000, the merchandise, mixing and mastering of the recording and reproduction costs make up the remaining $6000. We need to secure some of the funding by the end of July in order to get the shows and arrangements advanced with the European tour promoter. Once we are finished recording the new album we will use some of the funding to press CD's and produce merchandise for home and abroad. All of the funds from our upcoming shows will supplement the tour as well and allow us to focus on finishing the new recording. We hope to make 2017 our best year ever as a band and we want you to help us do just that! For years our fans, friends and family have been telling us that we "should be famous by now" or "should be playing big arenas" or "are WAY better than X band" so this is our chance to go prove to another part of the World what you already know. Thank you so much for making our dreams come true!
