Mark and Raianne and a couple other musicians that I don’t know are starting their walking tour across the state of Massachusetts today.
I’m linking to Mark’s website, because I used to play with Mark years ago, but the other musicians have the same info on their sites and Christopher Bell has apparently done similar things on a bike (according to thechrisbell.com … but the idea is that four musicians and a videographer/journalist are doing a walking tour across the state of Massachusetts with shows each night. I guess they’ve set up a blog as well: http://walkingtour2010.blogspot.com/
the first entry, by mark starts out:
“The entire trip is approximately 152 miles long; and this distance, according to Google Maps, would take about 2 days and 2 hours to walk. For some perspective, compare this stroll to the Appalachian Mountain Trail at 2178 miles which takes roughly 6 months to complete. We will only be walking for 17 days.
Google Maps states “Use caution – This route may be missing sidewalks or pedestrian paths,” I can not help but giggle a little to myself. “
