Australia due to remoteness.

But then they get the awesome tour deluxe album versions.

US/CANADA TOUR:

-Thirty-seven US dates

-Toronto and maybe Vancouver

Calgary and Thunder Bay get some good ones.

I live in Calgary and can mostly confirm that, but even a Beatles reunion and residence wouldn't make it worth living in Tbay lol

brazil

you know why

Isn't that like, half of Canada's population right there though?

/s

If you're from the GTA, it's actually the entire known universe

I can always tell when a tour booker doesn’t know geography when the Buffalo/Rochester/Syracuse/Albany/etc dates are nowhere near the Toronto/Ottawa/Montreal dates.

Not usually. Most bands I want to see do Toronto, Vancouver and maybe Montreal. A band like Phish hasn't played any Canadian city except Toronto since probably 1993...and they tour every year.

China, India, Russia… those are LARGE countries, in different respects…

Unrelated, since I'm laughably ignorant about Canadian geography, I Googled the drive between those cities. Google will. not. stay. in. Canada. Like arm wrestling a Python, it wants to keep the drive 90% in the USA. Seems... questionable.

Brazil does get Rock in Rio tough

Yeah it does that. If you're along the border you need to drop checkpoints or the service is basically useless

I did that drive in six days, but it was no Cannonball run lol

Albania, but it's kinda understandable (I'm saying this as I'm half albanian and It kinda sucks that I can't find performances of my favorite artists performing in my home country)

Or when the Buffalo and Boston dates are back to back. Ok, you can do it, but no
