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......
Me, three, for the 2002 Vegas show. Flew from Washington, DC. Met friends who flew in from Phoenix, Portland and Buffalo -- and a vanful who drove in from Denver. It was a bachelor party weekend, but kicking it off with a Friday night Hip show couldn't have been more epic.

Had to be the absolute H-O-T-T-E-S-T concert i've ever attended (in terms of temperature). Gord's "no a/c" policy just doesn't fly in the middle of the desert. Damn I was soaked.

3rd time to Vegas for me and my wife.. usually travel with friends but went alone this time

we actually had more fun on our own

Rented a motorsickle and cruised through the desert... anyone getting down should check out the "Valley of Fire' at
sunset... jaw dropping raw beauty

loved the tribute to the King when they played suspicious minds

2000.
Drove to Philadelphia from Buffalo,
flew to Berlin,
drove to Hamburg, Germany (in a rented Mercedes) and saw the Hip there in a bar,
then on to Amsterdam to see the Hip at the Paradiso,
then to Ghent, Brugges, and Brussels, Belgium for yet another Hip show at Ancienne Belgique.
Finished with stops in Maastricht, NL and Aachen, Germany, and flew back to Philly out of Dusseldorf. Tongue

Ugh, what I would do. Too bad for being a teacher and not being able to take that much time off at one time!

Flew from Milwaukee to Toronto for the Milennium concerts. I don't think i'd do more than 3-4 hours max driving but now that I'm making more money I've driven to Cleveland and Toronto.

I'm crap and unimpressive. Seattle to Vancouver is the farthest I have ventured. Hey at least it's another country.......

I will be going to Toronto later in the year though to see Our Lady Peace perform. I know it doesn't really count on hipbase though.

Tuesday am ditching work in the pm and driving down to Portland with 2 crazy girlfriends for the show that night so that will be a 3 hour drive if traffic doesn't suck too much. :mrgreen:

All I'm hearin' is youuuuuuuu

Not as impressive as some of you guys. Wow. The main thing restricting me from traveling further has and probably always will be cash and work schedule.

Driven from Buffalo to:

NYC (Hammerstein Show) - This was my first time ever in NYC and we went down for the entire Thanksgiving weekend. Wasn't prepared for the ensuing insanity on the roads and subsequent Black Friday. What made this trip extra memorable was not realized until several years later - we stayed at the Marriot World Trade Center nestled between the twin towers.

Clarington (Eden Musicfest) - First Hip show ever. Didn't even really go there to see TTH, I went primarily for The Mighty Mighty Bosstones. I bought TATH right there on site. Blown. Away. After that I never looked back. :thumb:
