GNR - $500K. No refunds available.

 

[Cooperman]

mmm... if I had $300k I'd pay it to have Shania Twain play with me

So if we all put in 50 dollars we could maybe get Iron Maiden?

 

[Goreripper]

Huey Lewis wants $100K? Fuck that.

 

[Spiff]

I can't believe Kansas are only asking for $20K. I've only heard one of their songs, and it wasn't even them, it was Dream Theater covering Carry On Wayward Son or something. Good song though. Pretty good value at $20K though.

 

[Southy]

How the fuck can Huey Lewis claim as much as a band like Matchbox 20 shit i know who i would rather have round

 

[Spiff]

I agree, Southy - Huey rocks!

 

[phlogiston]

That's why one is "Generally Available" while the other you have to "Call for availability".
