It would be a short account (or accounts) of traveling to various destinations of interest within the US in a home built teardrop trailer. Funding for the trip expenses would be supplied entirely by the traveler’s busking efforts (drumming). The trip would be over either when a specific destination was reached or when the money ran out. I could imagine that an account of this kind might be interesting to tear drop enthusiasts, musicians, people interested in odd adventures, or travelers looking for ideas on traveling as cheaply as possible. I am not sure what specific publications cater to these audiences… any ideas or suggestions? ---

I mainly was looking for magazine suggestions (although anything else is more than welcome) – for example, I published a short account of busking in Modern Drummer a number of years back. ---

I forget the name of AAA’s monthly magazine, but they seem to run a lot of stuff along those lines, as might Conde Nast’s **Traveler**. ---

Don’t underestimate the “quirky fun entertainment” angle-- I’d read it, if it was available to the non-drumming, non-trailer-building public. Especially if you can get a crowd of Seattle schoolkids to spontaneously join in on In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida… Ooh, maybe you should blog/videoblog as you go, and we can all follow you… ---

I’m just wondering where one reads things like that.
