Robin and Art, what you guys said. We played out in Kansas and heard from the folks who booked us about another performer who came out by bus, then discovered there was no good way to get to Oklahoma for his next gig, the next day. The people putting on his concert couldn't take him. He did wind up talking some person in the audience into driving him to his next gig. It's easy to save resources, when you ask someone else to use them up for you.

The East coast has good public trans, but many places don't. My dad, who was helping us when we were starting out, once said, "you don't have a good car, you don't have a career."
