Yanni Papadopoulos (Stinking Lizaveta-guitar)
SPB: What is the secret to a successful tour (whether that means financially or for your own well-being)?
Papadopoulos: The secret to a successful tour is to have a tour manager who is selfless, even tempered and sober. Tensions between band members can reach a breaking point when you're in a van with each other for weeks at a time. Having another person to react with becomes essential to the band's sanity. Our TM is Alexie Korolev, and we couldn't have done our latest West Coast tour without him."
