Travelling providers Vs the local scene

We have a lot of providers travelling to Chicago (a good thing) but it got me thinking about the local providers Vs ones in town for a visit. Any preference between the two or thoughts on why you would choose one over the other?

In Austin the indie's seem to be a little higher than say Dallas. We have been attracting a couple a week here of H-O-T ones from Dallas. I have a good hobby budget and the perfect way to do it is I pre book with a local lovely 1 a week and leave myself open for another visit by someone else. I've had great expierances on each. The only disapointing expireriance's I've had was my fault due to no reviews from repuatable gents.
