Kolin (The Rackatees, drums)

SPB: What is the longest (in time) that you have been on tour? Would you do it again?

Kolin: Our nine-day tour throughout the Southeast U.S. last September is the most consecutive days we've toured thus far. We know that's not much at all, but we try to make up for that by mini-touring as much as possible. We played about 25 shows on the road in 2013 outside of that nine-day tour, mostly in the Midwest (Chicago, Minneapolis, St. Louis, Oklahoma City, Denver, etc.). We will definitely tour again. We plan on hitting the road pretty heavily in 2014 after we record our new album in January.
