That kind of drum performance used to be exceptional if you were 12 at your local neighborhood suburban music school. But come on, JB couldn't swing if his life depended on it.

If a drummer doesn't AT LEAST have mitch mitchell chops, the only time he's worth is more time in the practice room

Does justin bieber "deserve" millions? no. But he also doesn't play music so it's kind of relative

I'm cool with john paul jones being a millionaire... i hate mike bern
I don't care who the musician is, no one "deserves" millions of dollars for playing music, it makes no difference if the artist is Bieber or Led Zeppelin. I know this is not how the world works. I'm just saying I can't feel bad for a sub-professional par musician who was given an amazing and extremely unlikely opportunity to do something virtually no one his age is able to do and only walk away with a few hundred thousand dollars

John Lennon did more for the world than most entrepreneurs and business leaders. I'm glad he had millions of dollars. People who work corporate positions at financi institutions or people responsible for the sale and manufacturing of garbage from the bones of a dying planet should NEVER get a million bucks. Your daddy with a job at the ad agency should never have a 6-figure salary.

An artist? Yeah. Just about the only people worth giving millions of dollars to. I don't see cheap shoes changing the world. Or mutual funds. Or whatever.

I would give money to orthodox monks so that they might pray for the salvation of my immortal soul
in the shadowed labyrinthine crypts of an eldritch monastery.

We all know the reason why you would pay orthodox monks
