I once went to see a debate between Leary, Hoffman and Sliwa at UMd...I recall it being well worth whatever I paid.

I could see six Mountain Goats for the price of one Neil deGrasse Tyson.

I never got the point of paying for lectures, speeches, etc...

Are you logged into your Space account?

What's the difference between paying for that and paying for a music concert?

I'm sure you're just trollin' me or playing devil's advocate, but I think you basically agreed with me here.

thanks space.

Other than a Jello Biafra spoken word event nearly 30 years ago, I can't think of a speech/lecture that I've paid to see.

That said, if it's a unique spoken word event that I can't pull up on youtube or netflix or something like that...sure I totally get the point of paying for it.

This is such a riveting discussion.  We need a "what is worth money and what is not" thread.

Well, he's really organized as his email says the exact opposite. Actually, his email is correct, you're posting the tour from last summer.

Hastert is going to prison!
do we think he will actually go behind bars

I hope he rots...
the judge called Hastert a "serial child molester" and described as "unconscionable" his attempt to accuse one of the victims of extortion.

I've never been to a spoken word event that I can remember...

I wouldn't mind seeing Henry Rollins next time....I been reading a lot of his books...

I really like Rollins' books and I have about a dozen of them. That said, I think his spoken word shows are 25% interesting and insightful and 75% lowest-common-denominator crap, along the lines of "Dick Cheney, eh?.... How about THAT guy?!? HE SHOT A DUDE! [waits for applause]. I mean, HALLIBURTON! [waits for applause]"

I walked out of the Birchmere really disappointed and wishing I'd never gone. Just my two cents.

touche.  Maybe some of those living room hosts can help him maintain a website
