How far have you gone? - chuckm - 06-12-2009
I was wondering what distance other Hip fans have traveled to see a concert? See you in Seattle.

There are about a dozen Hipbasers, myself included, that went to Europe to follow The Hip on their last two Euro tours.

I drove from Winnipeg, Manitoba to Toronto on December 29/30, 1999 to Toronto for the Millenium concerts at the Air Canada Centre. By myself. On the Trans-Canada highway. In the dead of Winter. That was about 24 hours driving time with two major snowstorms that I had to drive through.
By plane, I've flown from Halifax to Winnipeg to see them in my old hometown. That's the farthest I've flown.

We usually fly from YYZ to AirCanada's Aeroplan so called "short haul" destinations (Boston, NY, Chicago, etc...). We've probably done 30 + trips like this.

Went down East from SW Ont. to follow them through the Maritimes on the WC tour.

I flew from Istanbul to NYC to see Pearl Jam. And I probably would have done it for Das Hips as well.
I was with Chris and the gang for the EuroHip Trip back in '06, though I was already in Europe when it started. Damn, I wanna go back.

Hey, me too. Flew from Cincy to Vagas and met with buddies for that show, and then we drove from Vegas to LA to catch the shows @ the HoB in Anaheim and on Sunset Blvd in LA...in what.... 2002 i think?
That was one sweet vacation......
