I'm not usally a betting man, but ----
(1) [ - $1.00 ] I can almost guarantee you that at least three people in the Cellar will play "hells bells" by AC/DC during the course of one night. Just because Bob was the only one to do it last night doesn't mean I'm wrong.
(2) [ - $0.50 ] So what? "Hells Bells" comes on, before 11:00pm, and I lose one measley dollar. What does that prove? Guarantee that the next song is not going to be the one What'sHisNameAcrossTheTableFromMe played. Was I wrong? Yes. "Young Americans" by David Bowie starts cranking and all upon the sudden, I'm down one dollar, fiddy cent.
(3) [ + $1.00 ] Bob decides that's he's 2 for 2 so far. Why not go for three? My selections will come on before 11:10pm, for sure. It gets to be around 11:08, and they're nowhere to be heard. Homey says, "I'll extend it until 11:30." Is he nuts? Indeed. I feel bad for the poor little feller, and say we'll meet in the middle - 11:20. Puts a little pressure on me, but I'm okay with it. The Beatles' "I Will" starts blaring at 11:17. Mark it. Up another dollar.
(4) [ no change ] No one would take my bet that Zook wouldn't show up. It got to be way later than the 10:30/11:00 that he and the Ryan said they'd be here, or so I heard. I'm thinking he'll just not show up, and maybe I can win back another dollar and come out on top. Too bad I went to the bar with a bunch of optimists. But not that bad, cause I would've lost anyways.
We even heard "The Devil Goes Down (even further) To Florida" last night. Apparently the Charlie Daniels Band was trying to cash in on that "Georgia" hit. Sounded exactly the same to me. And its true, the girl that Zook referenced did dance to it. She'll dance to me trying to play spoons on my knee. Not Spoon, the band. Get it straight.
