Derek (Static Friction)

SPB: What is the furthest you’ve ever traveled to see a single show (and who was it)?

Derek: Oh boy, I just so happen to have a good answer for this one. My wife and I have been planning an Italy trip for about a year and a half and just shifted it from next fall to this spring in order to catch Ghost in Milan. So, not necessarily traveling to see them, but we did adjust the entire trip to make it happen. Gonna be sick.
