You have sources for some of those rock star playing private gigs statements?Rolling Stone did an article on the industry of music acts who do secret, private performances. They can't get much info because of the secrecy.
For example, a wealthy Chinese family had a relative with a birthday, and they paid Jennifer Lopez $1.25 million to sing for 40 minutes to the 20 people at the party. They gave her another $500,000 for air and hotel, and built a restaurant and nightclub inside a Grand Hyatt for the event.
A New Jersey guy, real estate figure Steve Silverman, had Roger Daltrey perform in his back yard. Another guy had Stevie Nicks, Steven Tyler, Joe Perry, the Eagles and others for a bar mitzvah for his teenage daughter, some paid over $1 million.
Others bring in a pop start to sing for guests in their mansion for 40 minutes for millions, and fly in celebrity chefs to cook for them following the concert.
It would be great if this didn't affect others, but the massive inequality does affect others a lot, estimated that salaries might be double what they are if Republicans hadn't changed the rules on taxes. It's fair to inform people the little that can be informed about this as a reminder of the excesses of the new gilded age. It's very much a global thing with billionaires around the world.
Some of these events are for rather unsavory people - like the bar mitzvah guy was later sentenced to 17 years in jail for financial crimes. One of the events was for a family event on a yacht off of Monaco who 'own a major US airline'. Ya, we should not pass the 20% minimum tax on billionaires, you should pay more instead, they need it more than you.
See the first two words of the post. Current issue. It says that a small number refuse to do so - that Springsteen turned down $250,000 to ride motorcycles with a guy, that U2 refuse to do them.You have sources for some of those rock star playing private gigs statements?
Very true none the less.Not sure how that post got here. Just noticed it myself. My mistake.
It isn't the artist that's the issue here.If an artist is paid that to fill a stadium, then it's okay?
It's a wealth inequality thing. Conservatives wouldn't understand.So.... I'm supposed to be mad at people for hiring singers to sing at a celebratory event.....

Please start a new thread on this. They need to hear it
It's not one or the other. They don't say 'well, we can't afford to spend money on corruption because we bought this concert'. You're sort of missing the point.Meh. I'd rather they spend money on pop stars than buying corrupt politicians.
