If You Can Sell It Here, You Can Sell It Anywhere

I love Manhattan. It's one of my favorite places to visit and if you shop around you can find nice midtown hotels that don't cost an SGC 40 E93 per night to stay there. I would love a show in Manhattan.

But if it's for the blue-blood set, maybe I'd go anyway. I'll just grab a 40-oz and nasty hot dog from a street vendor and stand outside on the sidewalk and watch as all 15-18 people show up.

So on top of the other comments ... I'm not so sure it wouldn't flop. Vintage cards aren't that broad in the fan base area, and when you subdivide that to include only those with serious money, I think the total audience becomes very small.

And as to the "we" thing. I've noticed lately that when Bruce talks about cards, purchasing cards, going to card events, etc, he uses "we". But when he talks about himself, where he's from, things he likes or dislikes or disagrees with, he uses "I". Personally I don't have a problem with that. If he wants to use "we" in a specific context that has meaning to him, and that may involve people I don't know about, then I see that as different than just a general universal use that feels like an affectation.

Just my opinion.
