    What a revolutionary concept! I see this idea revolutionizing entire industries! Like, instead of buying CD's (outdated business model), you take the musicinas themselves to the store, and let them sing and play music, and people who like this band will show up and pay for hearing them! You might even sell some of these outdated CDs afterwards!

    Well, that's just small talk. It's easy to agree for people that something is not the way it should be. But try to get them to agree on how much Michael, what anglle, what details, and the amount of cleavage shown by the reporter. :shrug:

    Don't attribute to stupidity what can be equally well explained by buerocracy.

    I've heard talk of a Beatles reunion. And there's a few of the Doors wandering around loose.

    This comment is actually about scale. Its like expecting a lake and getting the ocean. Small increments weren't what I was referring to.

      Give the people what they want and they'll show up. I'm pretty annoyed with the media over the level of coverage. Fortunately I have a new book (a fantasy novel) and don't have to put up with it. Reminds me of the stories of Rudolph Valentino's funeral. Although not quite as extreme.

        You could have loads of seating in your store and a flat raised area at one end where the band could stand so that everyone in the store could see them. You know I think that idea of yours might just work.

                          I'd not heard of that. I'll put it on my list. I see the price isn't cheap, but at least I can find it locally. Balance. Here's to "balance". :thumbsup:
