@glimmertwinsproduct Just realized he says it in the trailer.

@glimmertwinsproduct It was this DVD. Mick Jagger said it. Bands don't get alot of money for albums, mostly merchandise. Plus they were with Decca, you owned all the Stones stuff (songs and all).

@xDeadMisfitsx My friend,I'm not sure which dvd you're speaking of,but these are The Stones we're talking about.They damn well had $. The problem was that they owed so much for taxes that ''on paper''they were broke.Not the case however.To them having a million dollars in the bank is being broke.Think about it,during this time they put out Beggars,Bleed,Ya Yas,and Sticky,plus toured to support each album.Shit,you're talking 20mill albums sold in a 5yr period,plus tour proceeds.Lotta dough!

@glimmertwinsproduct That isn't what I was questioning though. I'm aware of that situation. I just don't get how in the DVD they say they, literally, had no money, yet they lived in quite wonderful places in France.

@xDeadMisfitsx Pretty sure that england's tax rate @ the time was an absurd 70 something%. The stones had absolutely no choice but to pack up and move out of the country or live life in financial dispare.@ the time all this was happening it was one of the biggest newsmakers during that era!Governments were involved.England's gov. was pissed, ''how dare they even think of doing such a thing !''Let's say you made $100,000 last year, after filing your taxes you only took home$26,000?Get Fkd Rite?

The Rolling Stones always reflected what was happening in the real world through each decade,...from the early 1962 to the current day.
There were and still are the greatest Rock `n` Roll band, and seeing them play live is awesome.
The richest band bar none when touring the World, and they sure command respect.
