Wouldn't it wind up costing more to haul all of their stuff to Europe to play a handful of shows though?

THE SOUTH ABIDES
until new shit comes to lightBrian0 -
I would say the $ is driving the Police and Rolling Stones to continue. And I truly believe that if Pearl Jam toured to bring their music to the people, then they would have been here by now. They will run low on $ and come see us. It's fucking sad.0

Sorry is the fool who trades his soul for a corvette
Thinks he'll get the girl, he'll only get the mechanic
What's missing? He's living a day he'll soon forget
That's one more time around,... the sun is going down
The moon is out, but he's drunk and shouting,
Putting people down...he's pissing,.. he's living...
A day he'll soon forget
Counts his money every morning
The only thing that keeps him horny
Locked in a giant house, that's alarming
The townsfolk,... they all laugh
Sorry is the fool who trades his love for high-rise rent
Seems the more you make, equals the loneliness you get
and it's fitting,... he's barely living,... a day he'll soon forget
That's one more time around,... there is not a sound
He's lying dead clutching Benjamins,... never put the money down
He's stiffening,... we're all whistling...
A man we'll soon forget
C'mon. Let's do this thing. Stop the madness. The waves can wait. Come see your friends. Fools - don't make us want to forget.0 -
OK, FUCK IT. I'M GOING ON THE KEITH URBAN BANDWAGON INSTEAD. HE'S TOURING THE SOUTH.

OK, all things aside, do you really feel this way? I've been feeling this way for a while but hoped I was wrong. Has Eddie really gone "Hollywood?" Because we all know he's the one that leads the band....When he didn't want the fame, there were no photo opps with C. Diaz...not that I give a shit about that, but is that was has happened here.......? If so, I am so disappointed....Like you say, the waves can wait. Has he truly sold out???Atlanta 3/94
Charleston 10/96
Greenville 4/98
Charlotte 8/00
Charlotte 4/03

How the fuck do they manage to "run out of money"?
If that is the case I respect them less and less - the maturity level of a teenager.

The Rolling Stones have managed to. We all do at some point if we spend more than we make. Ask George Bush how he does it.
They have expensive lifestyles and the music business is getting less and less profitable.0
