I have to agree, money talks! I guess it's money too now that totally motivates Bubba's machine. I can only compare the past few days presale with my recent experience with Stones presale tickets. They rewarded their loyal fan clubs with a special presale code and tickets were offered at all price l...

G.O.D. I appreciate the "fatherly" advice from above. (How is the view from up there on that high horse?) :roll: Your "Let Them Eat Cake" attitude really struck a chord with me. After all, I must remember my place....and not question those who portend to show me the way. And when...

Anyone else out there remember Portland in the early 70's?? The few brain cells I have left from those days seem to recall Bubba and the boys rolling out of a smoky bus at the Euphoria Tavern? (I think the name stuck with him!!) Several years later ('78?) he landed his sea plane on the Willamette Ri...
