The Money Shot: Touring Bands Getting Pinched By Gas Costs...

"But a $200 door guarantee doesn't stretch nearly as far these days. Talkdemonic, for example, travels in a van that gets close to 17 miles a gallon on the highway "if we don't drive over 70 mph," O'Connor says. Covering the 635 miles to San Francisco takes about 37 gallons of gas each way. With gas well over $4, that's more than $300 for a round trip. And the problem becomes apparent."
