Trevor (Mercy Ties)
SPB: What is the longest tour you’ve been on (in terms of time)? How did it go/would you do it again?

Trevor: Our longest tour was 24 days. Started in Seattle, we did the west coast, 4 days in texas, some of the midwest, and ended in Portland. The goal of our band is to put out records, make friends and tour; so we definitely would do it again. I would tour year round if I could make it work. I love touring. Its just hard to make it work economically.
