    • $217M for drawing in major crowds, advertisers and partnerships that make the parent company prob 5-10x that over the course of the contractPonyBoy
    • be annoyed @ the greedy MGMT above the talent... technically the talent is still getting screwed regardless of their cutPonyBoy
    • I'm annoyed at the people (fans) who fund this more than anything really, but i'm as guilty as anyone_niko
    • I hear that— I actually feel the same way. Side note: the kids in college earning MGMT all that money 'might' get a free Ed. if lucky— outside of that...PonyBoy
    • ... they aren't allowed shit. No gifts (this goes to something so small as a nice meal even)... yet MGMT scrapes $Mill++ in proceeds off them each year.PonyBoy
    • Talent in any field always gets fucked unless they own the 'team' / company. :(PonyBoy
