BetterthantheVan Hosts SXSW Panel "Friendbase to Fanbase:  Why You Must Tour Now!"

BetterthantheVan joins Polyvinyl Records, Red Light Management and High Road Touring in a panel to bring awareness to their online community and are giving away a van stocked with gear from Gibson Guitar, Ernie Ball Strings, Pro-Mark sticks, D'Addario, Evans Drumheads and more.  

Founded by Scott Miller and Todd Hansen, BetterthantheVan brings together the music-loving community with hard working musicians who are looking for a cheap, if not free place to crash when they are visiting cities to perform.  Musicians can search through a database of generous hosts who are willing to offer their couch, floor or air mattress to hopeful musicians seeking a good night's rest on the cheap.  Options to show swap or view pictures of crashpads are also available on the site.  To register, visit betterthanthevan.com or click here.
