Chicas, ustedes son fantásticas. Viajaría a cualquier parte de este mundo para verlas en concierto!
Explanation:
This is a free translation. The literal translation would be:
Chicas, ustedes son fantásticas. Conduciría 80.000 kilómetros para verlas en concierto!
I would put the distance in kilometers and not in miles, because miles are hardly used in the Spanish speaking countries. 1 mile = 1.6 kilometers.
80,000 in English = 80.000 in Spanish.
Hope it helps. I would use the free translation.

(Obviously, there is no part in this world that is 50,000 miles away. That is why I translated it as \"I would travel to any part of this world\"

I am trying the answer lico\'s comment and the system does not take it, so I am adding it here.
After having travelled during over 200 days a year throughout Latin America from 1983 to 1993 as supervisor of an Association, I am definitely convinced that
SOIS IS ONLY USED IN SPAIN. USTEDES SON IS THE NORMAL WAY OF SAYING IT IN ALL LATIN AMERICA.

Sois increibles y conduciria 50.000 millas para veros actuar


Explanation:
Soory, cannot write accents with this keyboard. Another possibility would be "totales" for awsome, depending on the register and also "para veros en concierto" instead of "veros actuar"
Cheers.
