Thousand-dollar ideas (Part One)


Al Gato's thousand-dollar idea:

Rock & Roll Branson.

Put Styx in the "Paradise Theater". REO Speedwagon in the "Hi-Infidelitorium". .38 Special in the "Redneck-olisseum."

Branson is, as Reverend Jack refers to it, "Where showbiz goes to die." But it's full of the kind of people who were the third guest on the Carson show when Joan Rivers was guest hosting. I was going to make up a list, but the actual list of performers is far funnier.

Nobody under 80 wants to go anywhere near the place. But a destination area with 70's rock acts would be quite the kick. We need to find some VC money to get this off the ground.

Baldknobbers Jamboree? Is that what I think it is?

Branson is great.

I've been to Branson. To America's best amusement park for septuagenarians: Silver Dollar City.

A 'Baldknobber' in hillbilly talk is a person who lives on a treeless hilltop.

And yes, they are for real.

One of the saddest places I've ever been.
