Cool
I agree with dagusto. If you trust your woman and she doesn't mind moving your merch, I say go for it. Woman typically are better at moving merch than dudes anyway. I would trust my woman before any other friend, but that's just my whooped self. Criteria: 1.) She can't be attracted to any of your band mates. 2.) She has to to truly believe in you and/or your band.

Even if she's not attracted to your band mates, that doesn't mean they won't be attracted to her. It might not be the chicks starting drama, but they can easily fuel it. I'm pointing this at the guys in the scenario, so misogynists be damned! When you're cooped up in a van for a while with 5 dudes and 1 chick, the scene is gonna start being like the old cartoons where the 2 guys are starving and the one looks at the other and he sees a hot dog and attacks except the attacker will be the band and the hot dog will be a chick didn't I see that in a porn movie once hey did I mention that run on sentences are killer?!
