ELTON JOHN COMES OUT ....
Check this out! Elton John -- the 61 year old English pop/rock singer, composer and pianist -- will be holding a solo concert for Hillary Rodham Clinton at Radio City Music Hall on April 9, 2008.
$10,000 allows you entry to a "private reception" with Elton and "the Clintons," where you'll likely get a hug (or, more likely, a handshake) and a photo op.
If you're not ready to blow 10K in disposable, after-tax (non-deductible) dollars on a political event, how about springing 500 bucks for an orchestra seat? (The $150 and $200 tickets are already gone, my friends.)
Here's a copy of the event flyer:
We're told the Music Hall has a seating capacity of "approximately 6000." Assuming, for the moment, Hillary's event sells out, and each seat went for about $250, that's a take of $1,500,000 for a few hours' work.
Pretty impressive. But couldn't the Clintons book someone just a little "hipper" and "younger? (Was Miley Cyrus too busy doing her homework?)

$250 for Elton John and Hilary? Ambien is much cheaper.

It's about $100 for a bottle of 30 tablets (10mg). See this report from a few years ago. http://www.nypirg.org/consumer/drugreport/nycsummary.html
