I think it's about 900 miles and yes I know that that will seem like peanuts to you but it's a lot to someone who was brought up in a country (talking just about Scotland now) that at its greatest length is 274 miles, and the maximum breadth is 154 miles... so to me 900 miles is a lot.

No, that IS a lot. I think the longest I've travelled to see a concert was about 570 miles for the Yes Masterworks tour in 2000.

It's well worth it!
I have to drive 2 and a half hours to one show and 3 to the other.

I think my two shows I have the same time/distance, Lifsonite. However I have to FLY to Nashville (but worth it...right NPG?
)
Freeze this moment a little bit longer...

I'm pretty lucky, I guess.
1/2 hour drive for us.

I'd love to bicycle the length and breadth of Scotland... over a long period of time, of course.
