Help needed!! Booking tour

[Domm]

Howdy all, my band has recently been added to pugfest in Michigan on 6/30/24 so we are going to do a mini tour to make it worth the trip. Trying to sort stops in Buffalo N.Y., and Cleveland OH. Looking for info on any good local indie rock/Emo/punk bands to play with and suggestions on some good venues in those cities. Any help is much appreciated!!!! Thanks

Last time I booked a tour (in... 2015? fuck), I had a little bit of luck with going to Bandcamp and listening to a bunch of bands with newer releases and lots of listens in the metro areas in which I was looking to book shows. You still have to send out a hell of a lot of emails but you'll at least find some active bands that people are into.

Check out the Beachland Tavern/Ballroom in Cleveland.
