Take the buyout.

My name is Kerry. I play in an indie rock band.

In lieu of a rider, we ask venues to give us our hospitality budget in cash. This is called a buyout.

I put my cash in my pocket.

I go out in search of amazing food.

I tell you about it here.

At The Buyout dot rocks, it is my mission to connect touring musicians (or out-of-towners of any kind) with great local cuisine. In my reviews, I place emphasis on three main criteria: affordability, healthiness, & speed of service. A restaurant that serves a filling & delicious meal for under $10 is looked upon with utmost favor.

Good food and good vibes only.
