Hi,
        I don't know whether any one has mentioned this already, as I haven't
read Wire for a few days. Some people I know seem to be moaning about the
release of a greatest hits album, as U2 said they'd never do such a thing.
However, they are getting $50 million for this, when all they have to do, as far
as I know, is re-record one song and do a video. Easy money if I ever saw it! We
know they, unfortunately, lost lots of money on the German Quasar games and
stuff they invested in, and POPMart cost a lot to put on. This way, they can
recover their losses and it will enable them to tour again. If we want to see
them again, maybe we shouldn't moan about the thing they said they'd never do -
as maybe now they need to...
        Anyway, I heard Million Dollar Hotel starts shooting soon, with Milla
Jovovich ( 5th Element ). Its produced by Mel Gibsons Icon Productions and he
may take a small role in it. how true this is, I am not sure, but sounds good. I
just hope Milla does a good job, as the 5th Element was a poor film.
        If anyone has any views on what I've said, post onto Wire or E-Mail me,
my address is...

        Thanks for listening,
        Geoff
