Some kind of tinnitus app that would give the ability to adjust the frequency of ambient noise, like the sound of rainfall, for instance. I have bad tinnitus and I was listening to rainfall recordings last night. On one of them, I felt like if I could ve bumped it up a note, it would ve canceled out my tinnitus completely.

Phone numbers and contact info for each show and details of discussed payment.3. A place to keep a list of all the equipment that you are bringing on tour with you; with pictures or descriptions with serial #s. Just in case something gets stolen.Basically something that allows everyone to have access to critical information. A digital tour manager.4. A guide to which clubs you're going to that have bathrooms that are safe to poop in, and which are not. Dead serious.

Dead serious.Finding giant frozen turds in a frozen toilet in the Starship bathroom is a classic example of this.If you had to drop a deuce, you had to lay it down in top of a sheet of ice with pre-frozen crap in it.An interesting variation on the classic Bangers n Mash. Lovely stuff.
