17 Stateside concerts for music-crazed Vancouverites with cars

There's no doubt that Vancouver has its fair share of concerts happening this year. Heck, we compiled 93 for the month of May alone.

And there were 148 in April!

But sometimes your fave band or artist just doesn't make it up here, for one reason or another, and only gets as close as Washington state.

The good news is, Washington state is pretty damn close--especially if you own a car.

Walking is another story.

So for all those Vancouverites with four wheels and a tank of gas, here's a rundown of some of the Stateside shows that are not coming to Vancouver.

(I've listed them in order of personal preference, so the best stuff's up at the top.)
