Don't let it bother you...I thought it was a good question, one I've not seen before!! You'd think that people don't realize that message boards turn over topics often as new people join :-)

Me and my fiance flew from Sacramento, California to Philadelphia just to catch those two Camden, NJ shows this past June. That's about 3000 miles give or take! No regrets!!!
I flew from NY to Italy to see them in 2006. What an incredible vacation. If it wasn't for Pearl Jam...I don't think I would have gone to the other side of the planet anytime soon. What we fans do to see a great band!

I met alot of people doing Italy in '06 and i was SOO jealous
Seeing Imagine in Cornice convinced me and a friend to bite the bullet and finally travel to europe for some shows (it ended being Radiohead since PJ wasn't touring) Can't wait to do it again but this time for PJ...hopefully the $ will be worth something then...
Flying - About 5000 miles from Texas to London last year.
Driving - 1300 miles or so from central Texas to Charleston, SC in 1996. (We had a problem with our flights and ended up having to drive 22 hours each way.)
flew solol from Philly to amsterdam, took the train to germany & met my husband who was there on business, got back on the train the next day to the netherlands & rented a car & drove 2 1/2 hours to the concert. well worth it - had a great time.
"I knew all the rules, but the rules did not know me. Guaranteed."
Was it the MAIN purpose of my trip ... well ... no ... but, the whole trip (ended up being 12 days in Europe) would not have come about if PJ were not in Munich.
I had a friend living in Munich for a year or so, and I lost a bet to him ... (see Patriots v Broncos 2006 playoff game) ... so, I owed him dinner and planned on paying up upon his return to the US.
PJ announced their 2007 Europe tour and I was long overdue for a vacation, his stay in Europe was extended, so, I asked him if he'd be up for a visit and I could repay him dinner (oh, and I'd check out PJ while I was there).
To get my girlfriend on board, we added on 6 days in Paris. (more than worth it, I loved Paris).
So ... the trip wasn't necessarily focused around the PJ Munich show, but again ... I wouldn't have started the whole planning going to Munich if PJ wasn't playing there (or, if the Pats had won that game ... ha!)
First, it was so nice to meet you there! PJ fans are great. We also traveled to Munich but from Bellingham, WA. It was the main focus but also had wanted to see Germany. We traveled the year before to Italy and Switzerland for 4 PJ concerts and had a great time but felt we didn't get to see much of the countries so only went for the one concert in 07. Our other longest trips have been to Hawaii (twice), Chicago and Winnipeg. Always worth it. We let PJ, to a great extent, pick our travel destinations.
"I'd rather be with an animal." "Those that can be trusted can change their mind." "The in between is mine." "If I don't lose control, explore and not explode, a preternatural other plane with the power to maintain." "Yeh this is living." "Life is what you make it."

I guess the longest trip was driving from Houston to WPB FL and then to Tampa and back home. Houston to WPB was 18 hours solid. It was worth it too.
if my flights were not stuffed up, you could have thrown a trip from JFK to Camden directly after that, either by car or train, as soon as i got through the airport, but i didnt get my original flight :(
