Money and greed is never outrageous in a neo-liberal world. On the contrary it's considered a virtue by many. Maybe the only one left?

Sure, Mops. It is outrageous. No doubt about that. I was just thinking in political terms. It's just a flaw of mine...

I know it is a long video, but at the end, he does point out that it looks like this is a fund raiser for the band's charities.

He's not a journalist though...he's allowed his own opinions and biases. That's why people listen.Quote

Eddie Trunk seems to always carry a grudge against the Stones for some reason. He prefers Aerosmith. I Listen to Eddie almost daily and he ALWAYS has an agenda.
He has a lot of insight and knowledge but is a very bias person to the point it is almost ridiculous.

Greek you can achieve the same result with Photoshop!
And if you like to indulge in some silly fantasy you can add Brian Jones and Mick Taylor to your "hey I posed with the Stones" pic. ><

I use to watch the metal show on VHI not sure if it is still on and he rarely mentioned the stones in conversation with some of his guests - I remember when he had Lesile West on he brought up Keith and Mick T briefly.

yes well if a couple of hundred people lined up; cash in advance or credit card confimed,
then maybe they could just sprinkle or spray water on them as they passed!
maybe a water-pistol with a big tongue and stuff. workin with this...
...now you see the hops brain in ACTION.;
water sprayed, yes, but liquid that once touched the glass their assistant just brought them! They can just give Tim a GoPro and tell him to get the whole line or he's fired. that usually works. it's no lose sitch for the fans...
....then if they want download vids of them getting sprayed by their stars,
well, it's only a little extra cause you'll get a little discount thing sent to your phone. VIP probably stands for Vendors Insulting People, just go with the flow...
Get with it Hoppy. My suggestion does I believe make sense. But I admire your posts (even though for the most part I do not have a clue what you are talking about!)
Yes, Hopkins, you may think u are funny and witty, but u are NO Rockman.

I saw him act that way a couple of times on the Stump the Trunk segment. It was pretty pitiful.Quote

I also watched it quite a few times, and remember an episode where there was some type of trivia thing going on - might have been called "Stump the Trunk". When Eddie wrongly answered something about Jimi Hendrix, he started whining when he was corrected....and I mean seriously whining like a baby. It was bad enough he missed an easy question, but then to start whining about it haha. Even the two sidekicks seemed embarrassed for him.
Clearly he knows alot about rock music, and I wouldn't dare play against him in a rock and roll trivial pursuit game, but can't help but laugh whenever I see his name...whining Eddie lol.

Issues of profligate personal spending, obsessive fanboy/fangirl fixation aside- wouldnt someone falling for this be at all concerned about looking like a total chump/sucker/fool in the eyes of their elderly idols- you know, like " I cant believe these idiots are actually paying us this kind of scratch for "Hey, how ya doin? Gotta run..." What a sweet racket!
