Which band that you have seen previously would you make a long journey (in excess of 100 miles) to see?

More years ago than I care to think about I went from S Devon to Donnington park for Monsters of rock including ZZ Top, Bon Jovi, Magnum and many others. That was 215 miles each way. I’ve still got the ticket!
