sonic youth made nearly $500,000 for playing three shows in 2007
 

what? is that true? how does one know?
i really hope it is! go on youth!
its on pitchfork, in the article about syr 8 (it got praised btw).
here it is

wtf?
I dont think so, but maybe I should read it first

aaaah Ive already read this. but really did not recognize this huge sum of money. but somehow I dont think so. maybe the whole thing went around that sum, minus all organisation etc.

"yeah! So Don't Download Their Muzak They Need Da Moneyzzz"

In Goodbye 20th Century it said they made $500,000 off the Daydream Nation shows so yes.

damn I am short before DDN in goodbUY

more powerto the youth
remember it probably cost them upwards of 100,000 to get all their gear and themselvesand their families and their crew to the shows across the ocean

eah maybe they made 500000 bucks, but what is that in comparison to some real huge bands, like the stones or something...nothing???
also they are 4 people that makes 125000 for everyone

I'm sure Kim and Thurston would share their money, so 250,000 to them

but thurston will spend everything for records. so after all nothing for them

maybe he can afford a haircut now then? scruffy git.

Who Lee or Thurston?

Shut up frisco kid. HAHAHA.

I think thurston, lee more needs some colour, but I think the grey is ace. the mad-noise-professor called ranaldo

have thurston already bought his ferrari enzo ?

or not?

do you mean his first or the custom edition made by exhumed enzo personally?

his first, he said some time ago that he will buy it. or consider buying it:p

Do I give a fuck about what my idols win, no.

It may not be much compared to what the Stones make, as al shabbray mentioned, but holy hell SY only charges about $30-$35 per ticket vs. the Stones $350-$450 price tag !!! RIPOFF !!!!!

I'm so proud that SY can keep their prices so low in this day and age of $80 - $100 tickets !!!!

Weeza goin' to Sizzla.
