That's so silly, but I guess when you're so rich you start losing common sense, eh? I'm sure his bass tech thinks he's a tard.

He wants a bright flat and that's why he changes them after every show. He's stated his sweat causes them to go dead before a show ends. I'm sure he doesn't pay for them and it keeps his tech employeed.
