ReplyDeleteRush, EW&F, Buffett...we could have read this same headline in any given year over the last 35 years. Lovely. Can't we at least get a good 80's reunion tour or something? Dick Clark's dead and I'm not feeling so good myself...
ReplyDeletecourtney, have you ever washed your hair?
ReplyDeleteJohnny Winter? How old is he now? 80-something?
ReplyDeleteYes, Buffett again. The same old act sells out each time...so why not? Idiot.
ReplyDeleteWow not only a Buffett fan but a nasty one at that! Sorry for your lack of musical taste. Don't get me wrong...I don't blame Buffett. I would do it to if I could get away with it. Have fun!
