In my business, "earnings" equals all revenue minus expenses. So, I am thinking this is after expenses and includes merch sales, etc."Bumper sticker on my rocket's ass: go home, the earth is full." DLRComment

Wolfie is obviously getting paid - Valerie would make sure of that, and I can't imagine Ed Would be THAT much of a dick not to throw the kid something.
Far as the rest of it, Roth deserves to cash-out on a high note with this reunion. And from what I've seen, these shows look and sound great, so fuck it. No use in getting bent about it. Rock musicians expect to be paid, just like anybody else.
These gigs are something special to me, so it's worth dropping a larger amount of cash to see them.
My worry is just being able to even GET tickets.Scramby eggs and bacon.Comment

Oh Wolfies pay? He's inheriting a fortune! He's got anything he wants already!
You think when DAVE goes to sleep in the morning he's counting dollar signs jumping over the fence instead of counting sheep? Or does he count sheep with dollar signs on them!Comment

Eddie is a dick but not to his own son. I bet Wolfgang is getting 25%. Sure beats paying inheritance taxes."Bumper sticker on my rocket's ass: go home, the earth is full." DLRComment

Roth is on a salary.
Him doing the tour on a salary, especially an uneven salary compared to the Van Halens, would be even more head-scratching then him going ahead without MA there.
How much less than the Van Halens is he making for the gigs?Scramby eggs and bacon.Comment

The only extra detail I know is the name of the source which if I posted would cause a problem to them.
You'll just need to take the post based on my rep one way or the other.
Cheers!

Well I know the sisters/Wolf & Dave DO have separate representation, which would add some credence to the "salary" theory; however, if that IS the case, Dave's esquire should be ass-raped with a bottle of CaboSpambo!!! I don't give a fuck WHAT salary they agreed to, after the tour figures are in, he'll be hand-fucked by the entire Mormon Tabernacle!!
In all honesty....I just can't see Dave agreeing to "salary" after all they've been through -- think: RRHOF...Last edited by naturochem; 11-05-2007, 01:19 AM.CVH LIVE (OAK/SF) '78, '79(X2), '80(X2) +MOR, '81(X3), '82, USFest '83, '84 & 2007!
