Ha! Its funny what we think of as a long way for gigs etc. I have some friends in a band in Texas, and they think nothing of driving 100-150 miles for a regular bar gig, to be paid a lot less than pub bands here demand (quite often just for tips)!!
Im not slating John - we're all like it. Mind you, we have got some choice traffic/roads/fuel costs to contend with........i would be lucky to get out of London by road in time for a gig during the week!!
