I just saw this infographic chart that lists the bands that had the most tour dates, AND the bands that traveled the farthest aggregate distance according 2 Songkick in 2010. It seems like we can call Vampire Weekend 'the hardest working band' not online in indie, but also in 'the world.' They traveled ~150,000 miles in 2010, touring the world, exposing their album "Contra" 2 alts and mainstreamers everywhere.

Here is the list of the mainly relevant/interesting indie bands

1. Vampire Weekend 150k miles
2. Caribou 139k miles
3. 30 Seconds to Mars 124k miles
4. Surfer Blood 111k miles
5. Lady Gaga 89k miles
6. Beach House 89k miles

R u proud of Vampire Weekend for taking their brand 'global'?
Do u think their family missed them in the USA?
Do u think Vampire Weekend will have a concert on the moon next year just to keep the title of 'The Hardest Working Band in Show Business'?
Does Vampy Weeks deserve a break?
Does Beach House need to 'step it up' and tour more if they want to 'sell mad albums'?
Do a lot of these bands 'cheat' by performing in the Far East/South America?
Will Jared Leto build a rocket ship and literally travel to Mars just to become the 'hardest working man in Rock N Roll'?
R u proud of Vampy Weeks?
Was Vampy Weeks 'enslaved' to a global tour just to pay Kirsten Kennis? (h8 her, yall)
