But you will be allowed to keep some slaves on the side to sweeten the deal.

Been looking for a country I can move to where having fun is punishable by public execution, beer is illegal and the women are all covered in bed sheets from head to toe. Oh and lots and lots of sand and extreme heat.

There's a hidden danger here that they come to appreciate the classical music and become music snob yobs.

But Led Zeppelin would be the better experience, for sure.
And im pretty sure Jimmy Page owns stairway to heaven. As he's the credited producer. But it coukd also just be Robert Plant.
He once gave 10 grand to an oregon radio station, during a fund drive. Because the DJ promised to not play stairway to heaven if people donated.
Plant was driving through Oregon and heard it on the radio. And when asked said it wasn't because he disliked the song. But because he'd heard it before, and liked that the station played non mainstream stuff that he hadn't necessarily heard before.

I’m not a UK lawyer, but in the US Astley may have an argument with regards to likeness.

I don't drink, but went to a liquor store recently to get a shot bottle of bourbon to make a bourbon chicken sauce. I was behind three people in line who all bought multiple shot bottles for some reason. Popular stuff.

Plant is 74.
The Band of Joy is worth seeing. I often pay for acts when they tour that I see for free at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass.
Plant does a few old Zeppelin songs. Never "Stairway to Heaven" as far as I know.
I know it is sacrilege but Jagger is the better song writer of the two.

Does "yob" occupy the same ideological space in England as "thug" does in US media-speak?

Backslang rocks, it was an argot, used to exclude ... like Cockney rhyming slang, but like all language would have helped form a strong identity

From Jamaican English, the breathy ‘th’ sound isn’t used in that dialect

Why are the Saudis trying to get people to move there? What demographic would want to move to Saudi Arabia? I mean if I were a millionaire who can move anywhere in the world something like a Greek island might be nice, but Saudi Arabia? What could they possibly offer me that any European country wouldn't also have?
