I Don't Know How To Book

i'm trying to book my band's east coast tour. its kind of frustrating because i've got no clue what i'm doing. i've still got to book shows for syndey, moncton, and halifax, and the tour's getting closer and closer. boo for not having a booking agent. curse our indie DIY attitude. i could call places up on friday, since i don't work that day, but apparently no one wants to book bands on a friday, they're too busy... you've got to call on a monday or tuesday. so i'm told by my good friend chris. so i guess i'm getting some help. damn you, learning curve!
