If it was a private gig then he may not be at liberty to give away any information about it. :think  Pity.

He can publish the question without answer.

Maybe they rather dont talk about that money for nothing shows
You might get lucky, now and then

I heard it first in an Eastwood film. Maybe one of the Dirty Harry films?

About the private gig,
Can it be that it was for some people from UMG, Marks new record company in the US?
UMG's Headquarter is settled in Santa Monica, California!!!!!.......Ok a six hour drive by car to Scottsdale,AZ. (But with a private jet :think)

So for those who wondered ...why Mark toured the west coast and not the east coast and why Guy can not answer that question.....think twice :lol

Leaving nothing to interfere,
With the crazy balance of your mind.

It was..."The Dead Pool" from 1988

I've also asked Guy about the private gig and he did not post my question but he did send me a email with his answer:
---
I am contractually obliged to keep quit. In the current economic climate, it's prudent for billionaires to keep their lavish party spending under wraps. G.
---
I think we should resepct this and ask him no more questions about this. I think we can compare this private gig to the Landrover gig last year and the setlist will be pretty much the same........

Sorry Pottel the link does not work but i think it could be anayone. It does not have to be a rich person from Scottsdale.
The gig was in Scottsdale but that does not mean the person who payd for it is from Scottsdale.....  ::)

I received a mail as well on the 24th. Quite kind of him to send an email why he can't post anything about it, and I respect and understand that!
