Workers From Detroit Rolling Stones Concert Allegedly Go Unpaid, Checks Bounce

DETROIT (CBS Detroit) They can't get no satisfaction.

That's what some workers are saying after they worked hard on the massive Rolling Stones concert in Detroit last month, and reportedly left empty handed.

According to WGZR TV in New York, 205 people who loaded and unloaded 19 trucks full of stage equipment for the Comerica Park gig had their checks bounce.

"Some guys, this is money to pay the rent, to keep the lights on," one of the workers told the TV station. "The fact that they haven't gotten paid, I'm sure, has been a real hardship to their families, which is pretty brutal."

At issue seems to be sub-contractor Big Whitey Productions, which handled the workers for promoter AEG. AEG said they're monitoring the situation.

The show in Detroit reportedly grossed $8.6 million. A recent tour overall grossed a reported half billion dollars.

Lead singer Mick Jagger is said to be worth $300 million, making him the fifth richest rock star in the world.

And the show in Detroit was the most expensive event of the year to attend in the city, with tickets at an average of $233 each.
