CodyBanks Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 Each person in that picture could have cut a cheque for $15,000 and put on a free concert instead. Cheap, put me in the spot light rockstars. Trey alone probably did $15,000 in coke last month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamH Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 We all could've done alot of things. Why "should" on people who raised that much? I think the whiny fan needs a new diaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
