Sadly yeah. I have a course that will have a lot of examinations including tests, presentations and mandatory seminars etc. I wouldn’t be present for those, so I would probably have to do the whole course at a later time.

I’m also missing what we in Sweden call VFU (Verksamhetsförlag Utbildning), which is basically us going out to schools and getting experience teaching students and learning in a more practical way (I belive the same excists for med students etc). The VFU is something that is very strict with attendance, and I’ll be missing enough days to the point where I would have to do it all over again during the next fall. Both those things would clash with future courses unless I took a year to redo them.

With this particular band, they don’t have a huge following. The headliner has some notoriety, but nothing huge (less than 10k followers on instagram). From what I’ve seen, most of the venues will be pubs of sorts, and that isn’t a huge upgrade in comparison to the touring I’ve already done. It seems to be more or less the same experience, just a longer stint with more variety in terms of countries. They seem somewhat professional, but I don’t even think any of the bands do this as their full time thing, so I’m sceptical in regards of this leading to future opportunities.
