Hey, again: I didn't complain about his price, but about his voice!!!!!
Concerning how much he gets, I think you're wrong. Artists and athletes get
as much as the market allows them to, regardless of their past, present or
future. And they don't necessarily get good money while they're at their
best. Much on the contrary, most, at least in pop music, do their worst IN
ORDER TO make much money.

Whoops -- this is getting political.
Let's not argue about socialism vs. capitalism on a
singing list... I'd suggest BACKSTAGE, but it's
currently defunct.
Just a plea: Please continue your discussions of
welfare and wages and political systems via private
email, for the peace of the list...
Could agree more! Ingo, I'll answer the rest of it privately!
