When it's put like that it just makes me feel bad for not pulling the trigger and buying one of these

so what's the line when it comes to tax writeoffs for musicians?

could Ed fly to Australia, have his buddy pay him $20 to play a few songs around a campfire, and the entire trip is written off?

You can purchase a second box if you wish.

I'm going to pass. I'm only interested in the odds and ends at this point.

Huh, I guess round two didn't sell the way they expected it to.

However, I'm sure 75% of the people who bought in round one will buy in round two now that they can.

I should buy one and sit on it for a bit and see if someone wants to buy it from me in six months.

Y'know, I could probably fund a decent amount of what I'm trying to raise by selling Pearl Jam stuff I've accumulated over the years.

Knowing Pearl Jam fans, an empty box will fetch a lot on ebay in 10-15 years.

Apparently you can make up a decent chunk of what you spent by just selling the stickers and buttons and hat...

Would you rather have to part with your favorite Pearl Jam shirt or your copy of Lightning Bolt?

I won't say which RMer taught me to pay for my ticket to a show by buying two posters and selling one on eBay. :oops:
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?
