The Mahavishnu Orchestra Cover Band Sold Out, So We Saw This Act Instead...

Paris-Facebook, Travel and Leisure
On Friday night while sitting behind corporate monitors, Uncle Chucky texted me that a Mahavishu Orchestra cover band was playing locally Saturday night and asked if I was interested in attending. I stated, yes.

By Saturday afternoon I realized Saint Chuckles had not purchased tickets and (rightly) attended a wedding in Vancouver Saturday afternoon and by the time he texted me to check for ticket availability they were sold out.

I was in the middle of homecaring and shopping duties on the road in my vehicle.

A blessing here is that Chucky did not risk another incident with security officers because he would not sit by a 'fat guy' or like as occurred at the 2013 Rush show when he moved by his own limited free will out of his seat beside me and oh so wisely stood in a concrete stairway where he was then yelled at by a tatted guy to sit down.

Chuck was then seat relocated by Rogers Arena security.

Philosophically and ethically, as this is a philosophy blog, in part, in hindsight, Saint Chuck had better options than autonomously with his libertarian, 'Christian anarchism' views seeking his own 'fat free' view of the show.

He could have looked up, way up and saw several empty seats where he could have moved to. To be fair the conditions were dark and he wears glasses, but so do I, and I could view the empty seats.

He could have asked Rogers Arena security for another seat with more room. He was eventually relocated by 'force', or at least strong request, he could have been relocated without 'force' or at least strong request.

By the end of night after his relocation, he moved again by his own limited free will and he was sitting closer to me, but on the other side from where 'fat guy' was seated.

Now ironically, I now work in corporate security and that night at Rogers Arena, one of our friends, in particular Chuck's friend was security for Rush, backstage.

Well-done, Pope Chucklins, well-done.

Would Menno Simons roll in his grave?

Oh well, you are Reformed now anyway...

Philosophically, my choice was to use the shenanigans as an opportunity to post the entire event life in Satire And Theology comments.

Chuck and I were soon anonymously lovingly, satirically 'told off' more than once by what I view as someone from my fan club in Satire And Theology comments.

In regard to Saturday night, therefore, we attended another musical extravaganza from Mr. Bobby Buff, this time we bootlegged the performance, showed in part, with commentary on progressive rock and jazz fusion tracks we wish Mr. Buff would play and for some reason Chucky wanted to discuss Satire and Theology blogging legend and musical legend, Tom Jones...

  1. Hi Russ



    I have read through much of what was sent, and am fortunate to not have to be included at this time of my life. I will be interested in further news as it happens.



    Love

  2. Smith climbs to the top of Mt. Sinai to get close enough to talk to God.

    Looking up, he asks the Lord. "God, what does a million years mean to you?"

    The Lord replies, "A minute."

    Smith asks, "And what does a million dollars mean to you?"

    The Lord replies, "A penny."

    Smith asks, "Can I have a penny?"

    The Lord replies, "In a minute."

    very broad for me. I'm looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the han of it!

  6. Just viewed this on t.v.

    Wiki

    'The Adjustment Bureau is a 2011 American romantic science fiction thriller film loosely based on the Philip K. Dick short story, "Adjustment Team".[3] The film was written and directed by George Nolfi and stars Matt Damon[4] and Emily Blunt.[5] The cast also includes Anthony Mackie, John Slattery, Michael Kelly, and Terence Stamp.[6][7]'

    Sort of like Matrix minus phoney martial arts. Interesting concepts of free will and determinism. If I sit through a two hour movie it is rare, so hats off...:)

    But I do really like going to the movie theatre and buying DVDs...

  10. I'm amazed, I have to admit. Rarely do I come across a blog that's equally educative
    and interesting, and without a doubt, you've hit the nail on the head.
    The problem is something which too few men and women are speaking intelligently about.

    I am very happy that I stumbled across this during my hunt for something regarding
    this.
