OK, I own my situation. I'm in a great dad band. I love my band. It fits PERFECTLY into my lifestyle right now. The members are like family to me.
We get SERIOUS about playing the songs correctly. We dive deep into vocal harmonies. We pick apart the music until we're satisfied. The bar is set pretty high when it comes to that.
Otherwise, we don't take ourselves too seriously AT ALL. We do this for fun.
As such, I've been tossing around a (potentially) funny idea. We literally mostly play two venues. One is a bar in my town (as well as the drummer, guitar player, and keys player). The other is in the town where our female singer lives. But even that is only 18 miles from my house. Other than that we'll do a local festival, college football tailgate, or private party from time to time. But all of them are near here.
I really want to design a "Tour 2023" T-shirt for my band. I even want to name the "tour". I even want to have the "tour" dates on the back (which will basically be those two local bars and a couple of town events).
I think it would be hilarious. And we would sell them as such. It's not meant to be serious. It's meant to be sort of an "inside joke" between us and those who buy/wear the shirts.
I'm talking serious graphics like a Boston or Journey album cover. Tour dates on the back. "Album cover" style graphics on the front.
We would probably have to sell the for little or no profit, because the graphics and printing in multiple colors wouldn't be cheap. But I don't care. It's not about making money for me. It's the joke.
Talk me out of it.
