All of this may be due to having children which quickly teaches you to be flexible and learn to compromise.

And let's face it, 3 kids growing up in LA and a wife's business to underwrite ain't cheap.

I saw him in Nashville Thursday evening. He had roughly 300 people, in a venue that held probably triple that. He kept going on about how the "big machine" and "little machine" have finally found a way to coexist. And I appreciate that that has become the case....but let's face the facts. 300 people, at $50(before surcharges) is 15K. But that's before his agent, and any other promoter "write offs". But also, I'm sure he (obviously) had a guarantee, and the promoter probably took a hit. Maybe a big hit.... I have no idea of how much he would require for a guarantee....
