So you're taking jabs at Bono for making money but have nothing to say about Mick's worth? Isn't that...doesn't that seem odd somehow? Why do you think Bono makes all that money anyway?

So what if the tour is "extended". It's not actually. Just delayed. I'm guessing on a pretty good hunch that U2 will end up doing a good bit less amount of shows than the Stones did for the Bang tour, which went to some odd places and overplayed in some places because they simply wanted to make money (obviously). U2's greed is seemingly less so than the Stones' was for these compared tours. If U2 was to do the exact same amount of shows for the 360 tour, whether in 2 years or 3 years, how does that make it different? They'd certainly make a lot more just by volume - granted, if all the shows were sold out too - thant the Stones did. They got a bit more inovative with their stage. Maybe the Stones will do something similar and out gross U2 if they do indeed tour again.

"So you taking a few jabs ...." huh, huh, huh, a hillbilly being upset, huh, huh.
The difference is, Mick J doesn't go around being the oh so nice guy wanting to help everybody.
Bono goes around wanting to help everybody, but at the same time he goes into "TAX EXILE" in Holland because to pay less taxes there instead of paying taxes in Ireland. God knows if Bono being on stage in Irealnd says: "Poor old Ireland, lets ALL pay taxes". He doesn't. He wants everybody else to pay taxes. Not himself. If his company relations had been in Ireland, he would have paid a much bigger amount in taxes to Ireland than he now does to Holland.
Moral is a good thing, doubble moral is much better. Bono think he can talk his way out, but reality is: he fools with his fans.

A hillbilly being upset? Ha ha ha, nooooo Mr mtaylor. I'm just very curious. I think you answered it though ha ha ha ha. The Stones are also in Holland as tax exiles.

So so what? Not sure what the problem is about that. Obviously it's legal. Bono is no fool - and neither is Mick Jagger. Do you really truly know that Bono pays ZERO taxes? You really believe that? If you do you're a fool.
