Rolling Stones suck.

There are some bands where a little goes a long way. One or two songs and you’re good for a while. Rush. The Doors.

Rolling Stones are a bad where a few bars of a song are more than enough. Half a tune, and I’m good.

Anyone who puts out that much money for a concert deserves to be fleeced. Honestly, what is wrong with people? They will charge $1K because they can.

It’s not like they could make any money if they tried to sell tickets at the typical price.

Of course it has to be free. No one in Cuba has any money.

Is there modern hotels and restaurants in Cuba? I see some travel agency’s advertising a trip to Cuba. Can these tourist be so dumb they think it will be a modern and updated vacation spot?

It's been a cheap vacation spot for Canadians for years. From what I've heard from some of my Canadian employees, think of a crappier version of Cancun.

So their rock bands are even more outdated than their cars?

Don't be surprised when we find out that the American taxpayer is paying for the entire show and it's ancillary costs.

That's how liberals, socialists, and democrats provide something that cannot be, as free.

Something like the state department's green climate fund will pay for it. That's why we get an omnibus spending bill gun to the head every last second of the budget clock. Nobody can know what's in it? Agencies get to spend as they wish, not as congress is supposed to control.

Shouldn’t they have renamed the band to the “Rolling Wheelchairs” by now?

I think I first heard them jokingly referred to as "The Strolling Bones" more than twenty years ago. Who could have guessed?

The Stones are commie sympathizers, I guess. Because no one but the regime elite will be attending their concert.
