hogmaw Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I've just been offered a dj gig over in Tel Aviv. I'm reluctant to do it as I will feel like I am collaborating with a rogue nation. A bit like those cricketers that went to play in South Africa back in the '80s. No big deal real really, but it does make me feel uncomfortable. I think I will say no. It's a long way to go for just one night anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl_S Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I would not, and I strongly advise you not to go there either. I am not a very brave person, and feel that Israel is a dangerous place to be right now. Also I have very strong ties here in this great country, and I refuse to cut them.

Carl_S Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I would go for one thousand pounds excluding the price for flights there and back, food, and accommodation. 700 paid before I leave, and the balance on return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbloodyturbo Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 If the money is good go for it, money is hard come by now so why not. If you dont like Israeli's then dont do it as you wouldn't want their money anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveK Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 What would it cost? I would go for one thousand pounds excluding the price for flights there and back, food, and accommodation. 700 paid before I leave, and the balance on return. So in total £700 plus flight. Bargain.
