As for getting paid, no one knows which ones he gets paid for and which ones he donates his services for, so it's pretty unfair to bash him when all it is is speculation.
The Clinton fundraiser is no surprise at all, he's been playing at events for the Clintons for 20 years now. Although I will agree, while it's a beautiful place, it's a bit strange to hold a fundraiser there, I guess churches are branching out in their use of their properties??...
Nothing against playing for fund-raising events. And about playing for rich people being paid (for a fact not speculation), is not animosity is just clear as day, music business is a business, and those that make a ton of money, will want to make more.
