I saw a post on wire the other day talking about seeing the sweetest thing
video on an mtv special. I happened too see the special (I was waiting for the
U2 part) it was on the top music money makers of 98. U2 was number seven mtv
reported that the boys made 20mil on popmart and 15mil on records the special
unfortunately went down hill from there. Master P, Puff Daddy... and others
were all among the tops but the rolling stones were number one. mtv reported
that popmart was the number three tour of 98, but I heard it was second behind
Bridges... I don't really care much but was wondering if anyone could confirm
I have a feeling the numbers that news org. give are "estimates" they always
seem to vary a little. Im also curious too hear if anyone has info about the
progress of bono's screenplay the million dollar hotel. i keep hearing rumors
that i cant confirm. i know about the origins and that bono was close too
gettin mel gibson, gary oldman and johanou (sorry i probably butchered the
spelling) to do the movie but mel would not team with johanou and oldman
would not go without him.this was a long time ago though (on the zoo tv tour)
and the rumors i hear have mel's name in them. i wonder if thats old news or
something new. well hope somebody knows more.- Josh Kline "one life, one love"
