    I will travel more in the future I think for one off concerts. I won't be seeing any bands three times in a row or anything like that.

    I only travelled for PJ, but now I'm retired from it. I will only see them when they come to me now. They need to come to Los Angeles soon! They ignored the west coast this year.

    I saw De La Soul open for 311 way back in like 96 or so. All they did was walk back and forth on stage for 75 minutes asking if the party was over here.. or over here. Then played about half of Me, Myself, & I before they exited. I hope you get a better show than that!!

    Nah, just joking. I think the Foo Fighters and AC/DC are the only other bands I've traveled for, but only once or twice and those were 4-5 hour drives.

    can't remember who it is, but at least one member on here has admitted to only owning pearl jam and no other music.

    Sure do. From just outside NYC and I've seen Wilco as far away as Birmingham and St. Augustine FL. Seen them in a bunch of other east coast states too. I've also flown to Minneapolis to see one of Soul Asylum's annual holiday hometown shows. However on my "concert trips" I don't usually go far just for a show, even including PJ. I'll also fit in some baseball/hockey games, visit museums, and do plenty of local sight-seeing. You can pack a lot into a three-day trip anywhere. Also, not sure what you define as "traveling" but I'll go to any show of any band I like within a two-hour driving radius. For me that includes Philly, Albany, and Hartford.

    When I went to the PJ Ontario shows in 2005, a waittress asked us if we were in town for the Backstreet Boys. They were playing the same venues one night before PJ, LOL.

    I'm usually up for a quick 3-5 hour road trip. We've done it here while living in Portland & we certainly did it while in Texas.
    I LOVE MUSIC.
