I am grateful to give my kids the view from the otherside of the tracks, so when they become successful, they can show how far they climbed. lol.

Aside from the millionaire rockers who don't really need more money, at least everything else spent helps to keep the economy and jobs rolling along. Rich, excessive people do tend to give plenty to charity too, so let them have their fun.

Sounds like Daddy was trying to buy friends for his baby.
Kinda sad.
I take it he sent out 1,000 invitations to his own Barmitvah 34 years ago and his 10 cousins and the gentile neighbor were the only ones who showed.

I don't care how he spends his money.
But this sounds a hell of alot like a Dennis Kozlowski moment, I hope the IRS looks into it. I pay 100% of the taxes I owe, I don't want dishonest deductions taken by people to fund this kind of stuff.

The Eagles, Tom Petty, Aerosmith, Stevie Nicks -- it sounds like it was a party for 50-year-old Dad & not the daughter.

It would have been great to be able to shout "You suck!" at Kenny G at the top of my lungs in such an intimate setting.

I was in the service with a guy from New York. Before the Rangers he worked in "The Hamptons" (in the 60s') for the rich folks up there. We were talking about these coming out bashes and he told me that, and I quote "the more expensive the shindig, the uglier the chick". So let's see a picture of this dog.

Oy vey. Put...down...the VISA.
Just because you have the money and can do this, does not mean you should. Think of the children, for G-d's sake.

I've noticed that general trend as well. Not universally true, but I've seen some evidence.

What I saw her doing, Jewish girls aren't really famous for.

Yeah seriously. I wonder how he would have liked a 13th birthday party in the late 1960s with Perry Como and Andy Williams as the featured attractions who are to him what these Boomer Rockers are to his daughter.

"the famously irascible CEO of DHB Industries..." I'm no investor, but I notice that his company has lost 75 percent of its value since the start of the year. With this kind of spendthrift as CEO, no wonder his company is in the tank.
