While not exactly a cross-country trip, it was a 6 hour drive from Regina, Sask. to Winnipeg to see Paul McCartney at Winnipeg Stadium for the New World Tour (1992?) when Blair Cunningham played drums. It was a coach trip with lodging, and if I remember, I only paid $200 CDN for the package.

You can't even see McCartney now for $200 from a nosebleed section, and if he comes to Canada anymore, it's likely that he'll only come to Toronto.

A helluva show and a great bargain.
