I've never seen a football match, traveklled to France to watch England play Rugby though.

Gigs, Glasgow a few times is the furthest in the UK, Paris and Amsterdam aere the only places in Europe. I know someone that came from Australia when Carter USM reformed in 2007

Although I didn't travel there specifically to see them, I saw Starship in Phoenix Arizona in 1986, and Jean Michel Jarre at the Olympic Stadium, Barcelona in 1993.

For a football match, I would say either Plymouth or Carlisle

Probably not the furthest but one year when jamiroquai were doing a UK tour I got to see them 3 times in as many days. I won 2 tickets in a competition to see them at Cardiff, got 2 tickets for my birthday to see them in brum and my brother also got me 2 tickets to see them in Newcastle. Lots of travelling about but all 3 gigs were completely different

Went to Cologne to see ZZ Top in the early 80s. I have seen a few football games abroad, but actually travelling as an away fan was probably going to Ayr United to see Bristol Rovers in a pre season friendly.

Only Amsterdam, not too far. No great football journeys, though next year I'll be supporting the Welsh in France

West Midlands

Saw Chelsea win the cu winners cup in Stockholm in 1998, when I still used to watch footy.

Been to a lot of euro gigs, The Mission in Holland/Germany/France (1 show cancelled on arrival), seen Maiden in south of France, Queen/MArillion in Germany, Motorhead in France, plus a couple for the euro Monsters of Rock shows in early 90s. Been lucky enough to see some US/Canadaina shows too but that was the luck of rightplace/right time thing.

To the chap that saw Kansas Cheifs, my brother is a Redskins fanclub member since the 80s and won a VIP gameday pass last year, had to stump up airfare but they paid hotel and met players etc, had a brilliant time

There's no better buzz than going to see someone you love abroad actually! A regret I have is we went Tenerife and David Guetta was on at the football stadium and my 5 year old was desperate to go but he wasn't on stage til about 2am! Could hear it from the hotel, you just know DG can cut it live!
