What's the farthest you would go to see a concert?
-
@evan In typical Canadian style, I measure distance in hours. Depending on how much I like the artist, 3 to 6 hours.
-
@jamesmarshall That's cool! Did you ever go fully "on tour"?
@evan not for a whole season or anything. We did road trip from Houston to Colorado once to see 3 shows at Red Rocks and 2 at Telluride, all quite spectacular. Usually I would just fly from Houston to California for a run of 3-4 shows.

@jamesmarshall wow!
-
@evan just today I flew x-country and part of this trip is a concert Friday night
-
@evan I'm not warping back to Xarkclanx IV, even if The Beatles are playing a reunion show there. It's just not worth dealing with the decade of spontaneous liquefaction after.
-
@evan When I was younger, "own region." I think the farthest I've traveled for a concert was 400 km or so (Radiohead). Nowadays, my city, I'm too old for that shit.
-
@evan own solar system, probably.
-
@evan basically anywhere that's a direct flight from my city. There is only one international flight from here (soon to be 2). So I chose "own country."
-
@evan I would legitimately travel off-planet to see some bands, if I could afford it.
Actually, I don't think it would matter what the band was
-
I've only once made a transcontinental journey to see a concert, but that was when I lived across an ocean from London.
Now I go up to London or Paris once per year or so for a gig.
My own country is more of a monthly/weekly thing, given that I commute across cantonal borders anyway.
