I love traveling by train. You can have the whole band there with you, you have your own bed and there isn't a lot of stress ~ just playing and traveling town to town. You can drink as much whiskey as you want.....yeah....and touring the South is so easy, the towns are a lot closer to each other then, say, in California.
But things are a lot different nowadays. You have to set up your whole tour, finance it, and everyone has to squeeze into a little van with all their gear and drive all over this huge country.
And that van don't work without gas.
And gas prices are soaring.
