Estimated tour turnover €16.3 million!
Written by tevensso on July 5, 2004 to Gyllene Tider.
STOCKHOLM - Swedish financial industry newspaper Dagens Industri (Today’s Industry), writes this week that Gyllene Tider’s summer tour will generate a turnover in excess of 150 million kronor (€16,339,000). Experts in the business claim that Per Gessle will get a third of the turnover himself. 420,000 tickets have been sold to date.
EMA Telstar does not want to talk about how the money will be divided or how much profit this will generate. “That’s a trade secret and I don’t discuss that with the media” Leif “Blixten” Henriksson says to DI.

isn’t that a question we can leave to Gyllene Tider to decide? all the members have signed the deal.

Per lend us a tenner. ;) *MWAH*
Per is one doing all the singing... perhaps he deserves that bit extra. ;)

And Micke is the one doing all the drumming. A little extra for him as well?
;)

Just an observation: one third of the turnover is far more than one third of the profit as there are people to employ, venues to book etc.

I don’t understand why we even care.. They have made a deal that all 5 have signed...
Per does most of the work and that’s the reason why he gets more money...

Well, as for myself, I’m happy that ’FINN 5 FEL!’ turned into such a hugely successful project. After all, I don’t think, neither PER, nor other guys from GYLLENE TIDER did it for money.

He should get a fifth, not a third.
