Slavko Avsenik's Ensemble polka band was on tour continually from 1958 to 1971. During that period, they were paid for 9,592 performances, and failed to perform on only five days (three because of their bus breaking down, one due to a fire at the dance hall, and the last for the lead accordion player's wedding).
