Really sorry I missed the Cramp's, and I passed on an opportunity too....
Alas, they are gone....
Story of my life.
I went to see them at the Georgia Theater in Athens GA in 1979 - Pylon was supposed to give their debut performance.
The owners would not let either band go on because they just went broke.
Both bands said the would play for free.
The owners would have nothing of it.
I was pissed.
As I was leaving, the owner of the local cool record store (Chapter 3 Records) stood outside and told everyone leaving The Cramps would play in the loft above his store.
I didn't believe him - but it did happen - and all that beheld it said it was boffo.
Kicking myself to this day.

Major twitstorm coming in 5-4-3-2...

"The Mammadov family, described by Foreign Policy magazine as The Corleones of the Caspian, has a reputation for using their government positions to enrich themselves and their partners which includes construction firms tied to Irans Revolutionary Guard."
Hmmmmm. Does that sound like any other family we know? I've got it! That sounds exactly like the Trump family!
The Trump family's reach far exceeded their grasp. In order to finance Trump's luxury hotel "empire" (because legitimate money won't go near the Trumps) they had to lie down with a BUNCH of dogs. Now they're surprised they've gotten fleas.
Jared and Ivanka always pretend to be the more sane, nicer side of the Trump crime family. It's all an act. They're as dirty and vile as the rest. How I'd LOVE to see this entire family in prison. I think they should be housed with the same, seedy people they did business with on the outside. They're NOT nice people, and the Trumps would be in a world of hurt locked up with them. It's exactly what they deserve though.

(19,201 posts)The Donald himself wears? The ties that are 8 feet long (so they can drape over Trump's substantial girth), and have to be scotch taped together?
Gosh, where can one purchase such quality ties? I want 30 of them.
Hekate
(90,714 posts)Except the polish and soft voice -- that was no doubt finishing school. Just don't be fooled by the veneer.
Ivanka and Jared should probably not be sharing a lawyer, or won't be, soon enough. They may want to work out a deal like the Blagoieviches so that one can stay with the children while the other is in prison, taking turns.
I can hardly wait till the whole rotten gang is gone.

(1,907 posts)Something to do with emoluments it could be just her and donnie. But most of the family businesses are shared in some way. So according to what they are looking at it could turn up the entire family.

(19,201 posts)when I think of these Trumps, they're not even people! (Gee, who said that again, only about Democrats?)
'Always make sure your words are soft and sweet, because you never know when you'll have to eat them'.
The Trumps are in for some very, VERY hard, toxic word meals for quite some time to come. Ain't Karma a bitch?
