And I try, and I try, and I try...
The subject line "And I try, and I try, and I try..." is easily recognized form the song "I Can't Get No Satisfaction" by the Rolling Stones. And try, they did.
From CTV News:
About 1,000 lucky music fans in Toronto experienced a rare treat Wednesday night they likely won't soon forget -- a live show in a small club by living rock legends the Rolling Stones.The $10 show, considered a warm-up gig for their upcoming world tour, was The World's Greatest Rock Band's thank you to Toronto for playing host to them for past month.
That was quite a deal, compared to the $450 price tag for a top-priced seat when the rockers play in Toronto next month as part of their world tour, which starts Aug. 21 in Boston.
If you read through the rock band's history as chronicled at en.wikipedia.org you see a 40+ years of hardship, drug abuse and tragic events have marred their success. But they kept trying... and have been called "The World's Greatest Rock & Roll Band."
Entrepreneurs world wide can identify with their struggle. Although most of us will never achieve the level of success that they have, we will also never have to endure the the agony they have put themselves through to get there. However, even modest levels of success seem to require a modest amount of sacrifice, and a ton of commitment.
Today? I'm just going to try a little.
