I have to do some homework/research before I make my list. Is there a master list somewhere? I will say off the top of my head I have seen almost every NYC gig since 07 I believe. I am at 30 or close to it. I have yet to leave NYC or drive to a show. Train, Subway, Walking, Cab.
OK I had to jump in on this one... thanks hopped for being at every show that I have been to except on, that made it a bit easier... I would love to see the mileage total for the white Yarn Van.

Unless they add some fill-in dates, it doesn't look too good for NC over the next few months. Just one show in August and one in September. Might have to do some driving. I've been wanting to check out Music City Roots, but that's just after Bristol and I'll be back in Nashville for Americana Music Festival in October.
@ant5marching, I'd bet 5 or 6 round trip plane tickets and a couple of bottles of whiskey would do it.
I am not at my desk long enough to stream shows. However due to the nature of my job I will stream a show when a teacher tells me they can't play sound. Gotta plug the band whenever I can. I have also bought CD's from time to time.
Updating the stats... 18 shows down #19 this weekend. hopped and brouche have been to every show I have been to except 2...

Well put Tous :) Wish I knew when my next one was coming - living off the Archive - big thanks as always to the awesome tapers out there spreading the love
Let's see I flew from Zurich to see Yarn last year - that's 4342 miles ... does that count? Damn I miss them ... One and a half more years of musical exile in Zurich to go. I wonder what stage the band will be at when I move back to the States ... hopefully on to bigger and better things
By a quick count, Yarn (327) appears to be #48 in number of sources uploaded on LMA. While they may never catch the Grateful Dead (8,747), they could pass Garaj Mahal (333), Cracker(335), Steve Wynn (343), Matt Natahanson (365), and Bela Fleck (376) by the end of the summer if people get out and tape.
Hell tous youdaman when it comes to mopping up taper's tasks. Hopefully I'll get that sweet Syracuse board out to you soon. I just want to drop it into CD Wave and get rid of an errant split.
I'm glad to be a small part of that number hopped!
I guess Hopped and I would need to add Hillsborough, Lincoln Theater, and Milkboy to our lists. HE'd be at 53 and I'd be at 52 shows. Blew right past 50 and didn't even realize. That's a lot of Yarn considering my first show was 4/22/2010.

Updating the stats... 25 Shows in two years. Considering I didn't do 25 shows in the previous 6 years, not too bad. Glad my children are getting a bit more independent.

25 Shows 6,011 miles driven (Still stuck on Amateur Status)
Just recounted and I was off by a few. The majority of the shows I've been to have been with Hopped so I just usually go off his numbers and subtract or add as needed. So as it sits, I'm at 48 shows and hopped should be 53 or so. Planning on going to the Johnson City show on 1/25 so that would make show number 50 on 1/26....a hometown show for me!! Of course I could mess that symmetry all up and go see my brother in law in Augusta on 1/19. Either way, that's a lot of YARN!
I applaud all of you for your devotion and drive in the name of Yarn. While I can not (yet) hold a candle to all of these impressive efforts, I am very happy with our efforts in the past year.
3693 miles driven/flown (one way total) 16 Shows at 16 venues in 15 cities (Brooklyn 2 times) 9 states and the District of Columbia
Thrilled, honored, humbled and excited to have met so many card holding members of the Yarn family this year. I enjoy hearing you're stories and how you came to love Yarn. I am honestly moved by the love, passion, and respect that all of you give and have for this band. Certainly they are deserving of every bit of it. Don't know if we can improve on those numbers this year, but I can tell you I will be more than happy to give it a shot. It has been an incredible journey and it just keeps getting better. Can not wait to meet more of you and listen to the stories. Thank you all. THIS IS THE YEAR!!!!!!!
I'm a numbers guy so i checked to see if I could sort LMA shows by number of uploads. Yarn is currently tied with Ryan Adams and ahead of artists such as Ween, Grace Potter, NRPS, Cracker, MMJ, KDTU
