Being in a band is an exciting adventure. From touring and meeting fans to recording your own album, creating music with others is a one-of-a-kind experience. However, even if your shows bring in buckets of cash, you may find it difficult to save — especially with all the fun restaurants and bars you’ll find on tour.

Plus, if you’re touring full-time, odds are good you won’t be able to keep a full-time job.

Therefore, if you want the band to make it, you’ll have to find ways to save money. Luckily, there’s a number of things you can do to cut costs and put money in the bank while still having the time of your life.
