The Sell-Out Gig

Most intriguing writing. It is a good story by itself, but seems to be a metaphor for life in general. I think of the price of housing as it keeps going up and is less and less available to young people. The price of cars they have now become the price of an old house. The price of even listening to music anymore paid on a per listening basis. Life itself is expensive. Someday someone will be paying to read this review. Nicely done, Tom.

Memories of English and poetry I am bic pentameter If I remember right, was a major pen manufacturer. I guess this goes along with the poetry. The first thing that came to mind in reading this was the old testament. I am that I am the name of God.

Very clever and also true. We write and become what we write. The tools of the trade are obscurities, The rules of the trade are being challenged daily. Meter is one tool that endures. - Phil A.

From \" Jesus Christ Superstar,\" I think.
If it works keep doing it. We all need a pressure valve.
A most intriguing poem, that gives a glimpse to how people handle pressure. The release valves are countless and varied. It\'s brave of you to open up about this. - Phil A.

A line which I discovered quite early came from a play/film (1957/1960 John Osbourne), \'The Entertainer\' and goes \"Why should I care? Why should I let it touch me?\". May say much about my person......
Good write, Tom: Keep questioning.

Very nice everything is a point of view I think of the song don’t worry, be happy and it plays in my mind every time problems come. I truly believe that everything happens for the best and whether this is so or whether it is not just believing it makes life brighter.

Life. Exquisitely rendered by the poet with such poignancy the heart is rent in twain oer what had seemed passé, I swoon, I swoon! You know, I cringe too relate it, but tis not unlike the withered fellow who happily explained about his very hot car from the 60\'s which I\'d accidentally admired before realizing it was his. He said it\'d been the rage in highschool, but he\'d been unable to afford it. Now he was waiting for his wife to bring [an extra gas can?]-- and I began to learn, only began, about those loves we must eventually reconcile to reality. I love this piece! Me wishes for me ain copy!

One and a half classic albums, Tom?!
Anyways, 500 quid
To see specks on a stage
That`s more than a weekly wage
And by the way, Noel, I`m not afraid!
4 years gone by
I`m still fine

You bring home the insanity of ticket prices for these mega concerts. I googled Taylor Swift tickets out of curiousity and they start at around $1600.00. I\'m amazed at what people will pay for a one night experience. Great write my friend, you hit it out of the ball park.

Please note 2781above, Tom. Ticket agencies can be manipulative rip offs, the actual experience hell. Far better with the vinyl in the comfort of his own home.

Think you won that debate, Tom. But how does the proprietor allow you to set up your office on one of their tables, which otherwise might be available for a quicker, more frequent turnover? Married to one of their daughters?🙃
