Yes, it could be anyone of the local wealthy people. We used to give great, charity parties in the Hotel Del ballroom. It is not very large with a band set up. Some of the likely sponsors would be Bill Gates, Ted Wait..gateway computer, Qualcomm guys, the chip in you cell phone, Padre owners, Charger owners, McDonald or Walmart heirs, doubtful on those two. The owner of the hotel they are staying in Doug Mancheser. I would not fly in unless you want to tend bar or stand outside...

Oh and Bill Gates personally met with Mick to purchase Start Me Up! We should have all chipped in and hired the band for our own event. if it is a charity event someone will tell us. That will not be a secret.

not at all true. i am very familiar with these negotiations (from the microsoft side not the stones). they never spoke with anyone from the band. it was all handled through lawyers and middle managers.

Ok...you would then be a better source. I read it in a technology journal online. Thank you for clarifying.

Turner68 is a promotor of the new Periscope app. It's on IORR somewhere. Is this Bill Gates related?

They did meet in the early 80s, though (1983?), when Gates wanted celebrities to promote Apple products

I thought Micro$oft purchased the right to use "Start Me Up" for the launch of Windows 95. Jay Leno was there.

Don't belittle the man. I suggested that as a joke, him being so enthusiastic about it.

I am on the plane to SD. I think I have an in. It might get expensive, but oh so worth it. I cant describe the excitement that is shooting through my body. I am trying not to get over excited, cause I wont know for sure, until I meet with the person who is making the offer to get me in.
Other people have to be trying. Who else is going?
