Ian,
I'm not sure where you are coming up with your facts and figures about who makes what, but I think its more all the way around.
I dont think its all about the money anymore. They already proved to themselves and to everyone else that they are a money making machine. I say, :Well deserved!
As for the Sticky Fingers Zipper Zip Code Tour, its a very weak link from the album to the tour, but there is some promo involved, not much to be excited about except the addition of MOONLIGHT MILE to the setlist. So for that song alone I give it a nod.
As for why they are still touring, its because they can. KEEF has said they will never stop until one of them drops dead so lets hope they live long lives. MICK has said that they will go on until nobody wants to hear them anymore. Thats not likely to happen so lets be thankful they are still alive and well enough to to stadiums, arenas, clubs or whatever they choose and whereever they choose, because they are the ROLLING STONES! Thats what they do!

Bitch .. my dear .. those fact / figures I threw out were a <Joke> lol. I was only acting silly in the notion that The Stones and their entourage don't make much cash ... it was all a joke. Do ya really think, that I believed Mick Jagger only pocketed 80 bux from each live gig .. or in that they have to pay for their own hotel rooms?
Cut me a little slack .. Gaaeeeeze
Anyway, it is not <all> about the money I agree with you. It is about wanting to do it, wanting to perform live, and having a good time first .. and the money is a second place thing. Still ... even at second place...they want to maximize ... as is very evident due to those outlanish Ticket prices.
