Flack's Daily Smack - Not Even If You Paid Me

[RSS Bot]

How many times have you uttered the phrase, “Not even if you paid me”? Earlier this week my friend Stephen asked me if I would be interested in going to see REO Speedwagon in concert. My initial response was, “Not even if you paid me.” But I guess in the end that was a lie, because I both went and got paid.

 

At Riverwind Casino, with each concert ticket purchased, players get a $10 credit applied to their gamer’s card. Friday night at Riverwind also happens to be “Men’s Night,” where all men with cards also get $10 credit. Stephen’s sister paid for her own ticket but couldn’t go, so I ended up getting her ticket for free. So when the deal becomes, “will you go see REO Speedwagon for free and get paid $20,” the answer is yes.

 

REO Speedwagon played all their hits from the 70’s and 80’s, along with several songs from their new album that was released last week. The band was tight, and the show was surprisingly enjoyable.

 

And, with the $20 free credit that I was given, I won $200 in a slot machine. I got paid to see REO Speedwagon, big time.

 

If any other bands would like to pay me to come see them, consider this an open offer.
