Day jobs. That's why I suggested that my decision depends on the schedule of the tour. I think I can speak for most of us here when I say that the chances of us going to a US show depends on what shows fall on the weekend thus not having to take work off at all (for us M-F, 9-5ers anyway).
In '04, I went to Detroit and Cleveland because they were back-to-back on a Saturday/Sunday night. It was a long drive back for work Monday morning but it was well worth it!

I'd love to go to a string of US shows, and if the timing is right, and the funds are there, I'd take a few days off work and do it. (I have a wedding in Scotland to attend, so that's taking priority in my trip savings plan...)
As Trev mentioned, the Detroit/Cleveland shows last year were back-to-back weekend nights so we could do it without missing any work.

And if The Hip are in Europe while we are, screw your bachelor party in Dublin; it's bachelor party with The Hip!
