Where debating everything under the sun is only the beginning

I just don't see the point of paying to watch any tribute act

If they do it justice, why not?

I've done it for a Mozart cover band. Except then it's called a symphony orchestra. 

I'll stick to listening to the real Pink Floyd on my hi-fi.

Would you go and see them even though the ticket prices would probably be far too expensive for most folk.

Depends on the ticket price.

Heck, it's once in a lifetime experience and worth the spending 

Case in point Fleetwood Mac most recent tour saw tickets with a face value of £40 being sold for £2000.    

Now I like Fleetwood Mac, but there would be no chance of me ever paying that sort of price to see them.

You may be interested in this then, but as it's over here you would have a fair way to travel just for a concert.

Could Pink Floyd reunite to play Glastonbury?

Think I have a better chance of winning the lottery though and I've never ever bought a lottery ticket.  

Yup I like Fleetwood Mac but £40 being sold for £2000 is a rip off 

I'll have to think twice about spending another $1000 just for the travelling expenses.

Wouldn't hurt to try the lottery ticket every now and then, you'll never know if you get lucky 

I know too many folk that have bought tickets every week for years and won absolutely nothing. If they had just saved the money instead, they could have had a few nice holidays abroad or a new car or similar.

It can get addictive, like gambling.

The only winners at gambling are the bookies.

I dunno, there's also money to be made in drinks and food.

Anyway, I see no problem with it in principle. If you say you've got X amount of money that you'll spend on a night out then it's no different than renting a pool table or going swimming or whatever. I consider it overly expensive in fun vs money spent and I haven't gone since.

I don't think I've ever been in a casino. Was going to go in one when I was on holiday once, but was turned away at the door for not being dressed appropriately. A pair of jeans and a t-shirt was obviously below their required standards.  

I`ve never been to a casino either.

I think it is okay if you gamble moderately for entertainment. But I rather spend $50 playing bowling or eating at a nice expensive restaurant, instead of spending it on a jackpot slot machine.

You're never going to get that job as James Bond are you. 

Actually I had the most fun (and profit  ) with some Sega fake horse race machine but maybe that's just because I didn't know it until then. It's super corny.

I now want hot dogs. 

Not far at all really. Still didn't get my hot dogs though as my wife had other ideas.
