Del Nilppeznaf Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 incidently , doom and gloom peaked at 97 in the british singles chart .... thats sad Whats sadder is while Greece burns.. people search through the rubbish bins in Spain looking for food and most of Europe is on it's knees an investment firm in Paris hires The Rolling Stones to play a private party for it's employes.. and the BBC reports on it. ( from the article " There will be a second private gig on Monday funded by investment company Carmignac Gestion for their employees." ) Bit too political for here but .. like a Bob Dylan album states World Gone Wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Versatile Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Very apposite point made... :blink: I am guessing £M would change hands for a short 'unique' set 'Coincidentally' from an investment/banking organisation Yet another example of short termism with questionable use of clients' hard earned money...

jedzep Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Expect anything when feeling out the course of human kind. Here in the US, the right wing is contemplating electing a couple of religious fundamentalists to the highest office, one of which posseses enormous wealth and the kind of detachment from reality that often goes hand and hand with it. One step forward-two back. I'll be fiddling, umm, I mean pickin' while the empire is burning, and they'll have to pry the J45 from my cold, dead hands. The overwhelming force in the universe, after all, is entropy. More coffee! That pic of Ron Woods' grandma was quaint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zombywoof Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Truest words ever uttered - Pogo's "We have met the enemy and he is us." As to the topic of the thread - Cool. I always wanted to get to one of those club dates the Stones do before kicking off a tour like the gig at Chicago's Double Door back in 1997.

ParlourMan Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Probably not the platform for my thoughts on the financial industries... and talking politics on a guitar forum, I'll pass on that too. However, 12 quid to see a bunch of pensioners covering hits of the popular 60's & 70's act The Rolling Stones (not the best covers band out there we should remember) isn't too expensive if your entertainment options for an evening are somewhat limited.

I'm assuming you would rather be bound and gagged for the evening....... Don't those dominatrix types cost some money....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParlourMan Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Don't those dominatrix types cost some money....? The work pays for it, we get a corporate discount and special club passes. Took me a while to get into it, to be fair.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
