Just want to say one word, no not plastics, Airports!

This July and August I've done a summer series of gigs out at my local airport. It's a bit of a hassle because I have to clear security each time I do one, but it's doable. Generally folks are glad to see a little music and frankly a gig is a gig. Considering 24,000 people work at my airport, there's no reason a half dozen musicians can't be included. I've heard they have solo acts at LAX and in Seattle (or was it Bellingham). Anyway, whether your airport is big or small, it might be worth your while to approach airport management to see if they want to add anything special to the mix. Airport hotels might be another idea. My local "attached" airport hotel has solo acts, as a value added feature. The air industry is big money, maybe we should try and see if they'll throw a little our way...

Great idea, I am in airports a lot and can only think of a couple of times there was entertainment, once in O'Hare Chicago which was a pianist at a grand piano and the other was in The Bahamas which was a steel band. Both were well appreciated.

On the other hand I was once delayed at Berlin airport for a few hours and like lots of others killed time in the sex supermarket that's in the main terminal. mainly asking the missus what things were!

The Berlin shop reminded me that years ago IIRC they had porn movies at the Franfurt Airport. I'm not 100% sure, but at that time they had live "lady" shows in clubs and legal brothels, so I think my recollection is accurate. Hadn't thought about that in decades.
