They might be in Russia and Ukraine as they all seem to have them but they (like most things) are expensive in the UK, that said my Apple knowledge is poor.  UK Apple Store, we have 20% sales tax in the UK which will be included in the price.

How does it compare to US prices?

The Whisky A Go Go is a night club where a lot of rockers got their big breaks back in the 70s and 80s before actually getting signed to record deals

Don't forget the 60s. The Doors, Byrds, Zappa among others.

"Azura" ist ziemlich weis geworden.

Auch eine Art und Weise von Brianna um einen Vertrag zu betteln. Dildo spielen würden helfen!

'Azura' has turned pretty white🤣 

Also a way of begging Brianna for a contract. Playing dildo would help! 😇

Are you Aussie?

Actually 3 places:

The Brisbane nightclub Whiskey Au Go Go was directly inspired by and named after the famous Los Angeles rock venue Whisky a Go Go.

Both clubs trace their name back to the original Whisky à Gogo opened in Paris in 1947. The original Paris club coined the term from the French expression à gogo (meaning "in abundance" or "galore"). 

While the Los Angeles Whisky a Go Go launched the go-go dancing craze in 1964, the infamous Whiskey Au Go Go in Fortitude Valley, Brisbane opened later in March 1972 and operated until the tragic 1973 firebombing.
