(antiMusic) We've been telling you all about REPO! The Genetic Opera and the recent REPO! Road Tours. The third tour just wrapped up but if you missed it you're in luck as REPO star and co-writer Terrance Zdunich (plays Grave Robber) gives us the lowdown! Here is Terrance: Based on the overwhelming successes of Repo Road Tours 1 & 2, REPO!'s director, Darren Lynn Bousman, and I, are embarking on a 3rd and final U.S. tour. This time, we're attempting to outdo ourselves: more stops, more merchandise, more guest appearances!
But, as always, bigger plans equal bigger complications. We've spent the last 4 weeks hustling like crazy to put this—a 12-day, 11-city tour—together. I worked through both X-mass and New Years to make it happen, and Darren and I have collectively fronted a healthy sum of cash to finance the journey—far more then was needed for either of the previous Road Tours (in addition to the new travel and lodging costs of our "special guests", there are expenses for manufacturing RRT3 merch, plus required box office guarantees, so Darren and I are looking at about a $25,000 risk). So, for us, RRT3 in not only about having fun and spreading the REPO! word, but a need to recoup our financial investment. No pressure…right? - Read the full diary entry with photos!
