What's the farthest you would go to see a concert?

[evan@cosocial.ca]

@jamesmarshall That's cool! Did you ever go fully "on tour"?

[justinderrick@mstdn.ca]

@evan In typical Canadian style, I measure distance in hours. Depending on how much I like the artist, 3 to 6 hours.

@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.

[stevenray@sfba.social]

@evan own solar system, probably.

[stinerman@mastodon.social]

@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

@evan

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.
