4. Oui, madame. Bastille Day in Amsterdam:
Used to frequent a small bar just a block off the Leidseplein called 'Le Bastille'.

Every Bastille Day they'd park a big flat-topped barge on the canal in front.

Had a band on it and a big grill fired up.
FREE burgers and dogs, and the equivalent of 50 cent beer.
Vive la France!

10. And Rush will provide the music
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V7yxA9vt2-c

"There's no bread, let them eat cake
There's no end to what they'll take
Flaunt the fruits of noble birth
Wash the salt into the earth"
