The job of a Tour Manager is to make sure that life on the road runs smoothly for everyone involved. This means getting the band safely to venues and HOTELS, managing money coming in and money going out, and DEALING with Promoters and Venue Managers. Tour Manager Carlton S Brown of Bold n Boasy Ent. says that his “day consists of moving the Artist and the band from city to city. Along with my Travel Agent, booking flights, ground, hotels, etc. Doing day sheets (info on what your day will be like including departure times, show times, soundcheck times, travel after the show, etc.)”

Tour Managers work with Venue Managers, Promoters, Travel Agents, Band Members, Sound and Lighting Techs, Instrument Techs (Guitar Technicians, etc.), Sound Engineers, Tour Bus Drivers, Tour Coordinators, Production Managers, Tour Accountants and the Road Crew.

The idea of using a concert (band) tour manager is to make sure the tour is running smoothly, all band and crew are happy, performance revenue is being collected and tour-related bills are being paid.

The following is a (very) brief guide to the work you should expect from every concert tour manager you work with.

A band concert tour manager is the person who takes care of booking all the accommodation, transport, equipment and crew involved with the tour. The tour manager will then travel with the band on the road, dealing with all the day-to day problems as they arise. They also act as accountant; producing budgets, picking up cash for performances and paying suppliers and other expenses as the tour progresses.

On very large tours the role of band concert tour manager may be split between 3 or 4 different people; for instance concert tour manager, production manager, production assistant and tour accountant (s).

Concert tour managers are usually freelance and are paid by the artiste or artiste’s management company from the tour funds. They work on a daily or weekly rate. The tour usually pays for the concert tour manager’s accommodation, travel, communication costs and other expenses.
