In this thread we complain about bands never, never, NEVER coming anywhere in a 500 mile radius of you.What the fuck? About every concert I'm interested in is held in fucking Philadelphia. It's like an 8 hour drive to every single concert I want to go to. I mean, it's ok doing it a couple times a year, but I can't drive a 16 hour round trip in one day, so I'm usually stuck spending about $120 on what should be a $10 concert.Why doesn't anyone ever come near Cleveland? Hell, or anywhere else in Ohio? In before jokes about how much of a shithole Cleveland is, it's not like Philadelphia is much better. People in similar boats to me please voice your struggles and complaints.
i live in newfoundland and have a summer house in iceland. not even those viking rock garbage bands come to visit.
Cleveland is a shithole.
hahah you are in ohio!
I live in upstate-almost-fucking-Canada NYNot even bands from upstate NY play shows in upstate NY.NYC is a six or seven hour drive from where I live. ):
Why does Cleveland have the R&RHOF anyways?
Montana. Enough said.
I live in New Zealand, no-one comes here. Ever.FML
Hey I'm from akron and its not that bad here! I think we get decent bands everyonce in a while. Who is it your driving 8 hours for?
living in toronto is awesome. EVERYBODY COMES HERE BITCH (cause we're pretty much the nyc of canada)
FUCK YEAH WYOMING
I think Green Day came close to where I live.:|
>>4867338You're closer to Denver than Montana. I get a fucking 8 hour drive to go see Mastodon.
>>4867269Buffalofag here. I feel your pain, but between Rochester, Buffalo, and Toronto (has to be a fucking amazing band to go that far) I can get by.
all you faggots in america/canada whatever don't get to complainnew zealand is the worst
living in winnipeg was hard, but the new mts center has greatly improved the amount of artists and quality of artists that have appeared recently. but I still will say im sympathetic to OP.
>>4867325I did it for Mono Al Stewart, and Animal Collective. I'm probably going to go back to see Mono, but I can't decide if it's worth missing two days worth of classes.I know our situation isn't as bad as a lot of other peoples, but it still sucks.
Las Vegas ):
Athens, GA.Nothing but bro-friendly bands come around here anymore :(
>>4867325Also, I used to go up to Toronto to see a lot of concerts, since it is only about a four hour drive, but now I don't have a passport.I live in Youngstown by the way.
>>4867219Problem is Ohio has too many big cities that are close together. Bands justify that they can play any one of the three majors (Columbus and Cinci being the other two) and they think everyone will hop in a car to drive to see them. Is it total bullshit? Yes, but I've talked with a few bands about it after shows and most of them have given some variation of that, metal bands in particular.
Akronfag here,I was going to go to that weezer concert tonight (despite the fact so manys hitty bands were going) and modest mouse was in columbus two weeks ago and I'm seeing gogol bordello in cbus next month
Orlandoshit sucks man
Renaissance is coming to PA! That's right next to me!Suck it!
>>4867349I live in Rochester. I must be missing something.
Detroit. No problems here.
Cursive came to Akron a few weeks ago if I'm not mistaken.
I live in canton (oh) and I feel the pain, it kills me when I see a tour go from like chicago than skip to new york or phillie or some shit like that
I live in davenport IA. Obviously no bands come to my city, but chicago is 3 hours away, so that works sometimes. On very rare occasion, a cool band will come to iowa city, a mere 45 minutes away.
I don't even know what cursive is
Toronto.Shit's awesome.
Rotting Christ and Anaal Nathrakh:Fuck you. All you do is play festivals in Europe.
