But I felt a little bad - you folks had already purchased tickets and drinks and dinner and sometimes CDs and Tshirts too... I think I ended up making 60-80, which was certainly a nice bonus.

I'd buy a signed JoCo monkey. Oh, and the person who's idea it was gave me a lift to the concert and back. Much kudos to her. :-) What I'm curious is how much money you made that way. I mean, I couldn't afford to pin much on mine, but I saw some people pinning 20s on theirs. I'm just curious if it was a profitable venture. I’m with Rich’s idea on the monkeys.

Ya never know what might be planned. Would certainly put the monkey throwing in perspective. Just be careful if you sing “First of May” in an open air venue. Ya never know what might be planned.

Normally I'm not Little Miss Altruistic, but that's what was going through my head when the monkey-throwing occurred: "I hope he knows he can give those to the police."

I was way in the back had to throw it hard, but I was afraid of pegging you in the face with it and let up at the last moment. Oh, and I'm sorry I laughed so loud when you stumbled on Mr. Fancy Pants. I assure you, I was laughing at you, not with you ;) Hey, if I didn't love ya, I wouldn't have bought your whole collection online, paid for a live show, and thrown a money-laden monkey at ya. You always hurt those you love. I think my monkey hit the back of someone’s head in the fifth row.
