Your Chance To See Rick Astley At Pinecliffs, Algarve

Ready to be Rickrolled? Well here´s your chance. Rick Astley is the main man at a gala dinner and concert at Pinecliffs on Sunday the 2nd of August. For more info call 289 500 360 or check out the pinecliffs website.

Much as we like Rick, we won´t be going (unless Rick calls personally) as the cheapest (silver) tickets are 150 Euro Per Person, Gold are 250 Euro PP and Platinum tickets (they ought to be) 350 euro per person. Children between 8 and 12 get 50% discounts. So that´s OK! Now you know the real meaning of being Rickrolled! More like Bankrolled!
For those of you who can and can´t afford to go, take a trip down memory lane with this retro preview video of Rick at his best,

Rickrolling is an Internet meme typically involving the music video for the 1987 Rick Astley song “Never Gonna Give You Up”. The meme is a bait and switch: a person provides a web link that he or she claims is relevant to the topic at hand, but the link actually takes the user to the Astley video. The URL can be masked or obfuscated in some manner so that the user cannot determine the true destination of the link without clicking. When a person clicks on the link and is led to the web page, he or she is said to have been “Rickrolled” (also spelled Rickroll’d).

As the practice has spread, two of the various Rickrolling videos available online have been viewed more than 39 million times combined. These figures track the total number of visits, not individual viewers. Rickrolling has extended beyond Web links to playing the video or song disruptively in other situations, including public places; this culminated when Astley and the song made a surprise appearance in the 2008 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, a televised event with tens of millions of viewers.
