Yeah, if you're an entertainer, traveling the world, I don't think sailboats are going to be an option lol. This is true now, but I have been wondering today what are the alternatives. There was a time when we were limited by distance and every part of the world was different and unique; could we go back to that? I don't think so because there is the internet and global communication would still bring us together, visually if not in the flesh. Maybe it is time to consider that gratification is going to take longer and make getting there part of the joy again, but I suspect it would only be available for the rich. Climate change is going to force this on us and I would like to think that alternative visions for a changing world are happening. I have been reading about solar cargo ship design today and that could move QAL's rig around the world, only slower. Sorry svca, this post is not directed at you, your post just coincided with some of my thoughts today. I am ready for a transporter! Beam me up, Scotty!!!

I think the alternative being suggested was to go on a commercial flight where a few hundred people on on the plane, rather than the 20? people on the private jet. Of course, I don't know what the differential is on fuel per person. Or maybe that the performers could join the truckers? I can't predict what the outcome would be - Queen seemed to stay in hub cities this tour with quick one-day trips to outlying concert locations. These logistics could be in response to aging bones and muscles versus going green versus giving the people want they want for a tour.

Meant no offence by the hair is not singing lol. In case anyone was. He could be bald for all I care hahaha.
Looking forward to his TV performances. Hoping books some US ones too. I am hoping Superpower becomes a big radio hit. It has all the makings. Difference we’ll be how hard his label pushes it.,

Thanks everyone for the kind response. Yup i meant going commercial or the bus.
We could be quite a way further along had alternatives not actively been blocked and hindered. Heck, a 40t truck can drive with 20 to 30liters on 100km. Why can't cars run on 3 l ?! And there are other carbon neutral options like fuel cells. Electro cars are so ressource intense with their batterie, which make them no real solution. I just don't believe that we can fly to freaking space and not have a smart solution to our transportation and packeging (plastic) problem.
Again thanks for the response, i don't want to hawk this thread anylonger. 💚
WOW! somehow the last weeks went by so fast! The release of 'Velvet' seemed so far away but it has crept up on me running. Really hit me, that it's THIS FRIDAY already!!! 😁
