The beginning of tour, it was just like the beginning of summer camp well, except for the fact that I hated summer camp.
This is my sixth year of touring. This season of touring I will be touring with the band Twenty-One pilots during their emotional roadshow 16. Well that’s at least what the shirt I was wearing says.
This wasn’t my ideal job, I loved it don’t get me wrong, but what I really wanted to do I was too scared to do
I chose this job because I was able to work for half the year and the rest of the year I usually got off to spend with family.
I’m a tour manager assistant, basically when he has to leave to go check up on another band I take over.
There are only a couple of songs from twenty one pilots that I’ve heard, but considering I’ll be on tour with them I’ll probably be hearing a lot of songs from them.
“Guess what I just found out” Mark, from real bear media, asks me as I make my way to the main bus that I will be staying in with the band.
“I won the lottery.” I say sarcastically, taking out my keys to unlock the bus, both of us walking into the empty bus.
“No, but if you did you have to give me half of it.” He says, receiving a ‘of course’ from me.
“Anyway I found out your good friend Mute Math will be on this tour.”
“That’s great!” I say, glad to be getting some good news today. Also surprised that Paul hadn’t told me that when I talked to him over the phone earlier this week.
I have known the band Mute Math since they began. the lead vocalist allowed me to come to his house and play my instruments when I was a kid, since my parents didn’t like me playing music
“How come I’m only finding out about this now?” I ask, sitting down on the couch.
“Happened last minute. The band we had lined up cancelled a few days ago.”
“When is the band showing up?” I ask mark, opening up the mini fridge to get a water. It was really hot here in Ohio Columbus.
“they are actually already here. They’re outside talking with some crew they know.” Mark says, stealing the water bottle from me and drinking all of it.
“I’m going to go outside and meet them, start unpacking in here please.” I say, sliding back on my radio to hear if any of the crew needs help.
At first glimpse I only see their back, two boys, one with pink hair and the other with brown hair. Than there was a blond haired woman holding onto the hand of the brown haired one. They both were talking to mike the manager.
“You must be the band.” I say, standing next to mike. “I’m Emily, his assistant manager.”
“I’m Tyler, this is my wife Jenna.” The brown haired man, now named Tyler, says shaking my head.
“Hi, it’s nice that there will be another girl on this tour.” Jenna says. I nod in agreement I’m usually the only girl on the bus.
“I’m Josh.” Josh, the pink haired man says. His voice was amazing, unique. Before I became any more obsessed with his voice, I decide to get back to work.
“Well, I’m going to go to the other busses and make sure they are all ready to hit the road tonight. It was nice meeting you.” I say, turning around and walking to the row of 12 tour busses.
--
“Well, everyone is ready to hit the road in an hour. Although bus 4 wants more Cheetos, I told them they have their own wallet.” I say, walking back into the main bus after three hours.
“Anything else that needs to be- Hey Paul!” I say, exited to see paul after three months of not talking in person.
“Hey Emily, how’s life?” Paul says with a smile, walking towards me to give me a hug.
“Good, I was planning on flying out to see you guys, but work took over.” I say laughing as he picks me up in our hug.
“Where is every one else?” I ask him, referring to his other band mates.
“They will be meeting us in Seattle, I decided to come on a little earlier.” He says sitting back down next to mark.
“Nice.” I say, stealing the water bottle that mark was about to drink. Payback.
Sitting down on top of the small counter, I pull out my phone to check to see if I got any messages, of course I didn’t.
“What do you do when you don’t tour Emily, also how long have you been touring? I don’t remember ever seeing you before.” Tyler says the three of them sitting on the opposite bench.
“Five years. I only tour from August to January, that’s probably why you don’t see me.” I say, setting down my phone. “I don’t do much when not touring. Just visit family.”
“What state do you live in?” Josh asks me, affecting me with his voice again.
“Currently I have a small place in LA, but I’m from New Orleans. That’s how I know Paul.” I say, giving him half of the truth.
Before Josh and I could start talking again, mike walks in telling us that we are going to start driving.
I don’t know why I’m so obsessed with Josh all of a sudden. I barely even know him, and lord knows that I don’t have time for a relationship or to get close to anyone for the matter.
After all, whenever I get close to someone I end up running.
