Karla Bonoff Japan Tour 1981 Rooming List – Original SHOWCO Tour Document
Karla Bonoff Japan Tour 1981 Rooming List – Original SHOWCO Tour Document
An original rooming list from Karla Bonoff's 1981 Japan tour, sourced from the personal archive of Bill 'Doc' Gans — SHOWCO sound engineer who traveled with the production.
Rooming lists were essential logistics documents on the road, assigning hotel rooms to every member of the touring party — band, crew, management, and production staff. This one places Doc and the SHOWCO team in Japan alongside Bonoff's band, offering a rare, intimate look at the full human infrastructure behind a major international tour in 1981.
Japan tours by American artists in the early '80s were prestigious, carefully organized affairs — and this document is a direct artifact of that world, preserved in Doc's personal collection.
