Fear of missing out (FOMO) is the feeling of apprehension that one is either not in the know about or missing out on information, events, experiences, or life decisions that could make one's life better. This nagging feeling is common among young people. Older people like myself already know that we missed out or we don't care. I fear that I will miss out on Munly J. Munly, one of the most renowned artists in the genre and one of the stalwarts of the Denver scene. Munly has performed - solo and in bands - under different names: Jay Munly, Munly, Munly & the Lee Lewis Harlots, Munly & the Lupercalians, DBUK and Slim Cessna's Auto Club. Munly J. Munly is touring in Europe in November and December 2025 together with outlaw country artist Bob Wayne. I got his "Blood To Dust" cdr from 2006, which is a stellar album. I live in a remote part of the world. There will not be any concerts in Sweden. However, there will be three concerts in our neighboring country Finland. It's even more remote than Sweden. Let's list the pros and cons of going over the Baltic Sea. First, it's doable logistically. The ferry passes outside my living room window twice a day and it's only 10 minutes to the ferry terminal. However, the crossing takes 11 hours. Second, there are decent places to stay in Finland. But, hotel rooms are quite expensive. All together, ferry and accomodation is about $500. Add food and drink to the bill. Third, the concert will start 23.30 (11.30 pm). Normally, this is past my bedtime. Fourth, Munly will perform solo. This is passable, but it's not quite the same as a band. Fifth, the concert is scheduled to last one hour. This will affect the economic justification formula. It should be abundantly clear, that my excuses are lame and stacked upon each other. Maybe if he came to Stockholm, with a band and played at family-friendly hours etcetera. I don't like to step out of my comfort zone. As always, I'm talking tough in the locker room but it doesn't manifest itself on the field.
